Well, the current state of affairs with guile-unexec is that when memory is dumped, there must be no dynamically-linked code in use, because when the executable is pulled off disk, any atempt to reference anything in the dynamic library produces a segfault. This was observed on GNU/Linux with libc5. This is a pain; I don't know if it can be fixed in general. Andrew
