I wrote earlier complaining that when a ".a" archive is linked with
a kernel module, strange symbols (__exc_remove_gp_range, __exc_*)
are added to the resulting object, preventing it from being loaded
into the kernel.
According to a helpful source inside HP who looked at my problem:
Yes it is indeed a bug with the V5.1B linker.
The result is that you cannot put kernel object files into
a ".a" archive. We will get a fix out but it may take a while
before a fix is officially available.
