Hi,

there is now a pending patch for Linux kernels producing core files with the
first page of the ELF file for the build-id note identification.

So far BFD handled either p_filesz == 0 or p_filesz == p_memsz.  Patch handles
the case 0 < p_filesz < p_memsz (p_filesz == PAGE_SIZE for the build-id case).

`0 < p_filesz < p_memsz' meaning was so far undefined for the ET_CORE files.


Regards,
Jan
