Hi Guys,

Indeed it does.  In fact there was no commit that exactly corresponds to
the released sources.  A silly mistake on my part.

After some trial and error we now have a new branch (binutils-2_41-release-point)
and a new tag (binutils-2_41-official-release), that is a match for the released
sources.

There are no plans to ever make any changes to this branch - it is just there
so that we can have a tag that matches the release.

I will update the website to mention this problem, and I apologise
to anyone who has been caught out by the mis-tagging.

Cheers
   Nick
