The COMDAT group patch was checked into gcc mainline today. It tries
to detect if binutils supports COMDAT group or not. Unfortunately,
the simple test

.section .text,"axG",%progbits,.foo,comdat

isn't enough. Many more COMDAT group binutils bug fixes after

http://sources.redhat.com/ml/binutils/2004-04/msg00705.html

are needed for a working binutils with COMDAT group support. There are
testcases for each COMDAT group bug fix. But some of them are target
dependent. The first working COMDAT group binutils is the Linux
binutils 2.15.91.0.2. I suggest we bump BFD version to 2.15.92 so that
gcc can check 2.15.92 for COMDAT group support.
