Sadly, no. I can try to do some of the easier things, but fixing something like
the esp driver without the esp&dma datasheets is beyond me I'm afraid :).

Yes, these actually fail to load. Maybe it's a memory corruption in module.c
somehow: if I make too many debugging changes in apply_relocate_add() the
problem disappears.
I'm trying different things now to make it show me the failing section and
symbol when it fails. I'll post again once I have more details.

Thanks for your help.
