Do you have any idea what you are talking about?  Do you think moving to elf
is going to magically make shared libraries work?  I think not.  There are
systems out there that use a.out and manage to do shared libraries.
Granted, elf is a more advanced file format than coff, but it doesn't really
buy DJGPP anything
without a corresponding advanced OS.
