Found more fun regarding the ld stuff:

Specifically, readelf -lW shows dupd has an executable stack:

  GNU_STACK ... RWE 0x8

Fixing this involves even more hoop jumping.  This seems a disproportionate
amount of effort for a feature that is literally less useful than just typing
"man dupd".

Instead of chasing it, I'm going to replace that function with a simple call to
man(1), followed by the banner so it shows up after the user leaves the man
page.

Will have an updated patch up shortly, currently running tests.
