Question:
How can I use PETRAN with '-allowdlldata'?

Answer:
The usual answer is that you shouldn't! The -allowdlldata flag turns off the error message, but if you were to attempt to execute code that contains writeable static data, EPOC would panic immediately so you are no further ahead.
This directive was actually added for Symbian internal use in the kernel where writeable static data is used in certain areas.
