		+	Old binutils used to default to IRIX ELF instead of ABI ELF. IRIX ELF has a number of subtle differences to ABI ELF. In general these don't cause any problems however modutils for Linux 2.4 and older kernels assume ABI ELF and as the result may throw error messages as the following:
		+
		+	<pre>
		+	somemodule.o: local symbol gcc2_compiled. with index 10 exceeds local_symtab_size 10
		+	somemodule.o: local symbol __gnu_compiled_c with index 11 exceeds local_symtab_size 10
		+	somemodule.o: local symbol __module_kernel_version with index 12 exceeds local_symtab_size 10
		+	</pre>
		+
		+	If you get these, it's ''really'' time to upgrade to newer binutils.
