This is wrong. bfd_uint64_t does not require a 64-bit BFD, only a native 64-bit type (be it long long or long). > Secondly, all bfd_get_64 calls will fail when there is no 64-bit BFD. No. They work perfectly well when a 64-bit type is available. > There are no changes needed in elfxx-ia64.c, not even the obvious one > that you already checked in, The cast was clearly bogus, because it violated the strict aliasing rules. > The only change we need here is a Makefile.am change. IMHO the only change we need is to check for BFD_HOST_64_BIT and error out if that is not defined.
