Can you point me to where the "model" for type constructors is set
up?

Regarding the constructors for global initialization, I think that
Jeff's patch truncating the length of section (subspace) names
needs to be reverted.  I am getting a bunch of unresolved symbol
references from the dynamic loader involving global constructor
names that have been truncated.

I believe the core dump by HP nm doesn't occur with the "-p" option
even when the section names are longer than 31 characters.  I will
know more soon if this is the case.
