    I can be found either 40 miles west of Chicago, or in a galaxy far, far away.

    It depends upon the library functions that called from your object files. They may not be compatible as kernel code. If there are any printf() or other libc or glibc functions called, you are SOL. Do you have the source code for these? Also, how did you compile them?
    Sometimes, real fast is almost as good as real time.
