Hi All,

The 64-bit version of binutils got support for the PE COFF BIG OBJ format a
couple of years ago.   The BIG OBJ format is a slightly different COFF format
which extends the size of the number of section field in the header from a
uint16_t to a uint32_t and so greatly increases the number of sections allowed.

However the 32-bit version of bfd never got support for this.  The GHC Haskell
compiler generates a great deal of symbols due to it's use of
-ffunction-sections and -fdata-sections.

This meant that we could not build the 32-bit version of the GHC Compiler for
many releases now as binutils didn't have this support.

This patch adds the support to the 32-bit port of binutils as well and also does
come cleanup in the code.

build on native hardware and regtested on
  i386-w64-mingw32 and x86_64-w64-mingw64

and no issues.

Ok for master?

Thanks,
Tamar
