Thank you.

>By the way, could the nonsensical offsets be checksums instead?

If you're referring to those weird "addresses" that quickly became irrelevant, there's a CRC32 somewhere in the header immediately after them. The address value is the same across files with different contents too.

I was talking to a friend of mine about it and he suggested that maybe whatever process generated the files included the file's load address in case it could be mapped to the same address for some other optimization?
