binutils 2.9.1

binutils 2.9.1

[Gael MARTINEZ]

Hi

I try to compile binutils 2.9.1 under solaris x86 2.5.1 and 2.6
Configure says me ld is not supported. I sent mail to Ian Lance Taylor 
who said me nobody did a port for binutils. Is it possible to have a
official port ?

I tried to do that

compiled with that ld (If i don t use ld of Sun is because i needed this
ld to build a crosscompiler )

binutils 2.9.1

[Ian Lance Taylor]

I've put a trial binutils 2.9.1 release on ftp.cygnus.com in
private/gas.

-rw-r--r--   1 ian      cygnus    5693808 Apr 27 11:46 binutils-2.9.1.tar.gz
-rw-r--r--   1 ian      cygnus       9867 Apr 27 11:46 binutils-2.9-2.9.1-patch.gz

As you can see, the diffs are not large, and I don't anticipate any
problems.

This release fixes various minor bugs, and two fairly major ones: the
MIPS disassembler was broken, and the way in which the linker searched
for shared libraries required by other shared libraries was not
compatible with the Linux/GNU dynamic linker (it's still not
compatible, but it should be close enough in practice).

If I don't hear about any problems in the next few days, this will
become the binutils 2.9.1 release.
