Help!
	How does one tell the SVR[23] loader to load a ".o" dynamically
	(i.e. using current program symbols and the given location for
	entry point of .o), when the loader does not have -A and -T
	flags (-A param gives the name of the file with the needed symbol
	table and -T gives the location of the entry point for the .o).

	SVR[23] loaders allow files that have loader directives of how
	to arrange things, but my UNTRAINED eye did not see anything that
	would produce the same effect as -A and -T.

	P.S. (I'm using 3B1 (UNIXPC) with SVR2 and 3B2 with SVR3.2) and
	I am trying to find replacement for the following line in
	source (something like this):

	/bin/ld -N -x -A <full-path name of this process> \
		-T <the aligned sbrk() value> foo.o -o /tmp/Xldxxxx

	(If you think I don't know what I'm talking about, you're probably
	right :-) )
	Many thanks.
