No not really, this is because most Unix compilers/linkers (including
the A/UX ones) don't make position independant code (PIC), this is mostly
because PIC code often runs slower (and data is a real pain). CODE resources
need PIC code and a compiler that understands how to build an 'a5 world'
I recomend you use MPW or some such
