do not top post please.

From where this "etc.so" is coming for ?
If it is something that you just built, than you should add all your
dll / so files to the rebase list using the "-T" option

rebaseall [-b BaseAddress] [-o Offset] [-s DllSuffix] [-T FileList |
-] [-4|-8] [-v}

so something like

find you_build_tree -name "*.so" > /tmp/rebase_list
find you_build_tree -name "*.dll" >> /tmp/rebase_list

and from dash
rebaseall -T /tmp/rebase_list

It's very random - sometimes I get a single error, sometimes nothing, but most of the time it sits there and prints the following until I kill the build:
