   Why was the following change needed?

   Sun Sep  7 09:59:08 1997  Jan-Jaap van der Heijden (J.J.vanderHeijden@student.utwente.nl)

	   * configure.in: Make symlink to as-new rather than as.new.  Similarly
	   for ld-new.

   Do the post-2.8.1 snapshots of binutils (or Cygnus CDK) use ld-new and 
   as-new?  My copy of CDK still uses ld.new and as.new, and hence I had to 
   revert the change.

Current binutils snapshots use as-new and ld-new, as will the binutils
2.9 release.
