goupx - Fix golang ELF executables to work with upx --------------------------------------------------- Installation: `go get github.com/pwaller/goupx/` (or if you don't want to do it with root, `GOPATH=${PWD}/env go get github.com/pwaller/goupx/` will install it to `${PWD}/env/bin/goupx`) Usage: `goupx [filename]` Fixes the `PT_LOAD` offset of [filename] and then runs `upx`. This is only necessary for ELF executable (not Mach-O executables, for example). Based on [code found on the upx bugtracker](http://sourceforge.net/tracker/?func=detail&atid=102331&aid=3408066&group_id=2331). GPLv3 licensed.
