Cool. Since you wrote the code, importing it into lar should give us no
license problems. Can you post a patch?
It should be reasonably easy tofind out which segment is bss (the one
with compalgo "zeroes"), but I'm not so sure about data and code. Do we
want any convention (code is always segment0, data is always segment1)?
