Subject: FW: [PATCH] dl_addr: compare addr with sym->st_size.

Hi,
I just wanted to ask, if there something wrong with that patch, as there was no reaction.

Currently, I am fixing tests in the OpenJDK portola project (http://openjdk.java.net/projects/portola/).
Some tests fail, since we don't get correct stack traces due to the dladdr problem.

Regards,
Axel
