Sure.

Will do.

Yes, the additional check is necessary exactly for that reason. The code 
will fail if the userspace does not deliver a relocation array and still 
pushes data to an address register.

However, the code *should* check that there are relocations left before 
even coming here so I probably just fix this differently.

I was also thinking that earlier. Will do.

Ops. Will fix.
