The how is quite straightforward. You probably know most of this already but I am going to include it here just in case: 0. Request permission to backport the patches. (Permission is granted for the ones listed above). 1. Checkout the mainline binutils sources from the git repository. 2. Get the patches for the commits above. 3. Switch to the binutils-2_35 branch. 4. Apply the patches. The Changelog changes will probably not apply cleanly, but this is OK, because the convention is to create a new changelog entry with today's date saying something along the lines of "backport this patch from the mainline sources" and then including the original changelog entry as a comment in the new changelog. 5. Test that the patched sources still build. 6. Commit the changes. Once this is complete it would be worth sending an email to the list suggesting that the creation of a 2.35.1 release might be a good thing. (Assuming of course that you do think that it would be a good thing). Cheers Nick
