So I was looking into handling ELF groups today in the Atom model. It appears that we will need to add the concept of a group to the atom model directly, as modeling it with references fails to capture some semantics. http://www.sco.com/developers/gabi/latest/ch4.sheader.html Groups in ELF are collections of sections that must be either included or excluded as a unit. They also are used to

I support Nick's option too. I think handling groups is another example of using follow on references. One question is how does an atom outside the group refer to the main atom here ? Will not garbage collection cleanup the main atom/signature atom because there are no references ? Thanks - Shankar Easwaran On Wed, Dec 19, 2012 at 5:00 PM, Nick Kledzik <kledzik at apple.com> wrote:
