3
4 1. /MODUNLOAD causes cores:
5 - If a module is modified before being unloaded, /MODUNLOAD (and
6 therefore /MODRELOAD) may cause a core.
7
8 This problem is caused by the behaviour of the OS, which treats
9 shared libraries differently to executables (modifying the ircd
10 binary whilst it is running would also cause a core, but is denied
11 by the OS).
12
13 A workaround to avoid coring is possible however. To install new
14 modules, first remove or rename the old module, then copy/move the
15 new file into place. install or make install is also safe.
16 /MODUNLOAD will then work successfully.
17
18 We will likely have a workaround implemented in the next version.
