I would like to start making the binutils 2.9 release.

If you have any patches that you would like to get into the release,
please send them to me.

I have gone through my list of submitted patches.  If you have sent me
a patch, and you haven't heard anything back, then I lost it (except,
H.J., I haven't dealt with the libtool library version name stuff
yet).

I'm going on vacation on February 25.  I don't know if we can push the
release through by then, but we can try.  Depending upon the number of
patches I get, I'd like to make the branch early next week.

Ian

I  just  checked     gas-980210  on    `sparc-sun-solaris2.5.1'    and
`sparc-sun-sunos4.1.4' without problems!

But on    m88k-motorola-sysv3  I  wasn't  able  to    compile the  new
`gas/ehopt.c' without my appended patch. The next machine in the queue
then is the slowest one: m68k-motorola-sysv; but as  it uses COFF like
the m88k I don't expect any more problems.

m68k-motorola-sysv is OK, too.

Thanks--I have already checked in a different patch.

The ehopt.c file is new.  It is intended to optimize the exception
frame information now generated by gcc 2.8 and egcs.  If there are any
g++ users on these lists, it might be interesting to try it and see
whether it makes a significant different in the size of your .o files
and your final executables, and, more importantly, whether it works
correctly.  The exception frame optimization should happen
automatically, although you can disable it with the
--traditional-format assembler option.
