Ummmmm, I used -fwritable-flags with the gcc in the GNU locker and the
binary built from original sources *still* dumps core. I did not
spend too much time on playing with this problem. (I'd already fixed
the sources so that they don't try to do evil things with static
strings, but I wanted to see if -fwritable-strings didTRT.)
