Changes in 2.17:
* Add "-x NAME" to readelf in addition to "-x NUMBER".
* Add -i and -t switches to cxxfilt. -i disables the display of implementation
specific extra demangling information (if any) and -t disables the demangling
of types.
* Add support for the "@<file>" syntax to the command lines of all tools, so
that extra switches can be read from <file>.
* Add "-W/--dwarf" to objdump to display the contents of the DWARF
debug sections.
* Add "-t/--section-details" to readelf to display section details.
"-N/--full-section-name" is deprecated.
* powerpc-linux ld now supports a variant form of PLT and GOT for the security
conscious. This form will automatically be chosen when ld detects that all
code in regular object files was generated by gcc -msecure-plt. The old PLT
and GOT may be forced by a new ld option, --bss-plt.
* Add "-i/--inlines" to addr2line to print enclosing scope information
for inlined function chains, back to first non-inlined function.
* Add "-N/--full-section-name" to readelf to display full section name.
* Add "-M entry:<addr>" switch to objdump to specify a function entry address
when disassembling VAX binaries.
* Add "--globalize-symbol <name>" and "--globalize-symbols <filename>" switches
to objcopy to convert local symbols into global symbols.
Changes in 2.16:
* Add "-g/--section-groups" to readelf to display section groups.
* objcopy recognizes two new options --strip-unneeded-symbol and
--strip-unneeded-symbols, namely for use together with the wildcard
matching the original --strip-symbol/--strip-symbols provided, but
retaining any symbols matching but needed by relocations.
* readelf can now display address ranges from .debug_range sections. This
happens automatically when a DW_AT_range attribute is encountered. The
command line switch --debug-dump=Ranges (or -wR) can also be used to display
the contents of the .debug_range section.
* nm and objdump now have a switch "--special-syms" to enable the displaying of
symbols which the target considers to be special. By default these symbols
are no longer displayed. Currently the only special symbols are the Mapping
symbols used by the ARM port to mark transitions between text and data and
between ARM and THUMB code.
* dlltool has a switch "--ext-prefix-alias <prefix>" to generate additional
import and export symbols with <preifx> prepended to them.

Changes since binutils-2.9 are not easy to summarize, since it
represent more than 6 years of active development...
Solves PR pkg/13442.

based on ftp://ftp.netbsd.org/pub/NetBSD/arch/sh3/crosskit/.
XXX due to /bin/sh restriction in ld/config.status,
we can accomodate no more archs. we need to change ld/{Makefile,configure}.in
|

Use LTCONFIG_OVERRIDE, and thus remove four patches.
Update PLIST for arm and mipse[bl] additions.

the pkgsrc cross linker did not know -nostdlib option,and -nostdlib option
works such as -n option. -n is NMAGIC output option.
this misunderstanding makes bad alignment and bad address dynamic-linked
binary.
cf.
On ftp://ftp.netbsd.org/pub/NetBSD/arch/hpcmips/snapshot/20000620-1.5,
dynamic-linked binary is almost broken.

Installs only the compiler, no headers or runtime link libraries.

binutils stuff (except gas) to a shared, multiple-target binutils build;
reduce extract and compile times by being more specific with files and
targets; update to egcs 1.1.1 with a diffball from NetBSD's src/gnu/dist
tree; add 4.4BSD a.out archive support to binutils.
