OK.  Then if you do not mind, I will let CPU-rtems deviate sometimes.  I
think m68k-rtems will for m68k-aout since a lot of m68k loaders only know
a.out. I suspect the i386 may as well but don't know for sure and will let
folks gripe.

This will definitely be something I don't change until it impacts someone.

Thanks for your advice.  This is the kind of information only someone
intimiately famililar with something can provide.
