- stop using dlinfo() on glibc platforms but use dl_iterate_phdr() instead, as former's implementation is nothing more than a fancy cast and thus dangerously assuming that every provided handle is valid - dynload_plain test * now testing getting exec's path * workdir independent

Building DynCall on Minix 3
===========================


Status:
-------
- Compiles under GNU tool-chain on Minix 3.1.8 using script for Makefile.generic
  or by building specific make targets
- dyncall: tests run ok.
- dyncallback: minor bugs on dyncallback (some cases fail)
- dynload: unsupported due to missing dynamic linker.
- Integration of ACK tool-chain is in progress but not functional at the moment...


Building:
---------

1) using configure and make:
$ ./configure
$ make libdyncall libdyncallback

2) or using build script for gcc (using Makefile.generic):
$ sh buildsys/scripts/batch-build-minix.sh


Minix facts:
------------
- posix make
- ACK (Amsterdam Compiler Kit) compiler for C, Modula-2 and Pascal
  using own Assembly format
- ACK Assembler:
   if very first character is '#' - C preprocessor is run..

- Minix 32-bit: 
- ACK 32-bit compiler: long long is not supported
- Minix 16-bit: not yet reviewed...
