Could it be possible with some compile/link options to produce position
independent code? I have experience with other RTOS (Microware OS-9)
that is completely position independent, and I may say that it would
bring a benefit. It would provide simple method for dynamic loading of
user applications, remote (through net) updates, etc.

I would like to have some comments from eCos architects.
