OpenSSL uses another base address already in the Makefile >(0x63000000).
Do we need to coordinate this among all package maintainers, maybe? Maybe we could publish a list of all of the dlls in the system along with standard base addresses for each and ask that maintainers make sure that their DLL complies with the base address. The more I think about this, the more I believe that we shouldn't have to continually tell users to run rebaseall. Setting the base address is something that should be done once, by the maintainer, not every time a person installs a package. cgf
