   The new gas snapshot has libbfd.so.0.0.0. I'd like to see
   libbfd.so.2.8.1.0.18. Unfortunately there is no easy way
   to do it since I can only get libbfd.so.2.8.1 even if I
   want to make a binutils 2.8.1.0.18 for Linux. If I use
   libbfd.so.2.8.1, it will confuse people.

Oh that.  No, that hasn't been fixed yet.  Getting the version number
to match the release number is a libtool issue.  If you figure out a
clean patch, I'll be happy to use it.
