Ian has your i370 patch. I believe he has been swamped and he has
a long backlog for binutils patches. In the meantime, I will keep
maintaining my binutils for Linux.

Ian, Linas has some new changes to i370. Linas or I can send you an
updated patch after you check in the current i370 patch you got.

Thanks.
