KGI drivers are in relocatable static ELF format usually
(ELF binaries incompletely compiled.  Imported objects are listed in
dynamic-data section (canna remember) and the object requires relocating
to where it runs).

Actually IMHO should be easy to port, say, 'insmod' to DOS to handle the
linking *grin*
(modutils is what handle linking drivers into the kernel)

G'day, eh? :)
