Back in 2003, you changed DT_ENCODING from 32 (as documented) to 31.
Can you explain this (the ChangeLog entry unfortunately says nothing)?
Thanks, Jan

I don't know now, sorry. Please change it back as I clearly did the
wrong thing.

Committed:
Revert the value change of DT_ENCODING from 2003-01-17. Luckily (and
surprisingly) the value isn't really being used anywhere, henc no other
changes are needed.

* common.h (DT_ENCODING): Correct value (back to spec mandated

For the record, a STFW turned up
<http://sourceware.org/ml/binutils/2000-01/msg00059.html>
and <http://www.sco.com/developers/gabi/latest/ch5.dynamic.html>
regarding the apparent but wrongly percepted collision.
