The .rbf file was the right length, the .HLD file was wrong.
Did you correct that one yet?
The problem probably was that the backslash expressions were no 
evaluated as hex codes (\x52 -> one byte with value 0x52, not "\x52").
The "-e" option should accomplish this, or are there versions of echo
with different behavior?

The fact that the printk was not printed has no real meaning regarding
the point of the crash. Their output can be delayed, in this case
to after the time of the freezing.

What length does your kfirlib DLL file have? 1826875 bytes?
