The userspace test framework I used to develop module loading on
different archs is up at:

        http://www.kernel.org/pub/linux/kernel/people/rusty/modules/module-test-framework.tar.gz

I found it much easier to use for each arch than doing the
crash/reboot cycle (and you can use a real debugger).

BTW, the change to use shared objects for modules is going to be a 2.7
thing: after 10 architectures, MIPS toolchain issues made it
non-trivial. So the current stuff is what is going to be there for
2.6, so no point waiting 8)

Please report any problems!
Rusty.
