I know this feature was implemented because the
packed exe (with data between sections) cannot
be unpacked anymore.
But would it be possible to add this option for professional users
along with a warning message and the -k switch forced?
Something like: --nochecksd
Writing between the sections it's a valid technique as
long as you understand what you are doing.
This feature drives away UPX users instead of attracting them,
why should I unpack the file if I have the original?
Great algorithm for compression but it's useless if I cannot compress.
Sad to say UPX is broken here.
(luckily we have v1.06)
