Jakub, I noticed that ld.so(8) doesn't document LD_USE_LOAD_BIAS, so I drew heavily on your http://sources.redhat.com/ml/libc-hacker/2003-11/msg00127.html to write the following: LD_USE_LOAD_BIAS By default (i.e., if this variable is not defined) exe- cutables and prelinked shared objects will honor base addresses of their dependent libraries and (non-pre- linked) position-independent executables (PIEs) and other shared objects will not honor them. If LD_USE_LOAD_BIAS is defined wit the value, both executa- bles and PIEs will honor the base addresses. If LD_USE_LOAD_BIAS is defined with the value 0, neither executables nor PIEs will honor the base addresses. This variable is ignored by set-user-ID and set-group-ID programs. Could you check this over and tell me if it looks okay?
