Hi Pawel,

I don't know. It's a commercial closed source library
which works perfectly with native solaris linker/stripper
and doesn't work with gnu/crossbinutils-2.16.91.0.7
On monday I will check our NDAs and try to attach
this weird ELF library to this bug report for future tests.

If the NDA does not allow you to supply a test file, then there is not much that we will able to do. One thing you could try though is to run "readelf -a -w libcmodel.so" and see if readelf reports any errors or problems in the file. (I am assuming that the file is somehow not quite conformant to the ELF standard and this is why it is not being recognised).

Is the supplier of the file Cisco by any chance ? We had another bug report recently about binutils not being able to handle some files made by Cisco and a patch was developed to solve the problem.

Cheers
  Nick
