cgf(?) has repeatedly stated that we'l run out of address space eventually, whether we have some bureaucratic nightmare of a registry for "approved" DLL base addresses, or toss everything in to the auto-image-base hopper.

I think it was Jason.  Even if there are two or three DLLs using the
same base address, it should be better than all DLLs using the same
base.


I still haven't seen a true "fix" for the issue proposed. Is moving forward with --enable-auto-image-base as a "policy" the best we can do?

I think so.

If so, I'll happily patch libtool to conform, but I think it might be premature to do so now.

What is the default base address used by ld if no base flag is used?
I.e. isn't specifying --image-base=0x1000000 redundant because it is
the dafault base address?
