Hi Guys,

  I am applying the attached patch to add the ability to display unicode
  characters to the nm, strings, objdump and readelf tools.  This is
  part of a response to the Trojan Source vulnerability that was
  recently disclosed.  I am also working on a separate patch for gas,
  but that is not quite ready yet.

Cheers
  Nick
