To be honest, I've been very tempted to solve this problem using a very 
brutal approach: take solib-svr4.c, copy it to solib-aout.c, strip 
out/in SVR4-SHARED_LIBS code, and then tweek the config files to use either.

I think this is one of those cases where the desire to re-use the code 
was taken a little to far - better to get the interfaces right and have 
a clear separation.  Who cares about a little duplication :-)

enjoy,
