[PATCH 4/6] module: check versions *after* relocation.

From: Rusty Russell
Date: Wed Jan 28 2009 - 08:36:46 EST



Rather than checking versions as we look up symbols, we save all the
symbols we resolved and then check them afterwards.

This will allow us to use char *'s in the __versions section, which
need relocations before they can be dereferenced.

krealloc and the loop isn't all that efficient, but there are rarely
very many unresolved symbols in a module.
