Can't argue with that.  As I mentioned, GDB switched to always using 64-bit CORE_ADDR
a few years ago.  I've never heard anyone complain about that causing slowdown or higher
memory usage.  Plus, who develops on 32-bit hosts nowadays, anyhow?

Curious, what sort of objdump output difference does 32-bit/64-bit bfd cause?
