By any way - is here someone on the list understanding Z8000 PLZ/ASM? ;)

The problem is, that "u" must be available in the address space on this
location for the kernel to function correctly:

# define UBASE             0x3E00F600      /* kernel virtual addr of  
user struct */

And with the above ASM code, it is placed on 0x0100F600. I also tried
of course $abs 0x3E00F600 but it makes no difference. It is always
placed at 0x0100F600 and I have zero clue why

the original object from the system:

#67 nm /usr/sys/conf/u.o
3e00f600 A _u
01000000 s u_d
     0000 s u_p


my object generated from my u.s:

#68 nm u.o
0100f600 A _u
01000000 s u_d
     0000 s u_p

Somehow I need to get the address right.... This is why I wanted to
look up how the original SYSIII or V7 was doing it (even if the asm
would be of course completely different).
