Description Xake 2010-03-24 09:01:47 UTC

Could you please add patch http://sourceware.org/ml/binutils-cvs/2010-03/msg00111.html to the patchset of 2.20.1? It has a 3 line fuzz, but compiles fine.
It fixes the handling of exported dynamic symbols with PIE, which has been broken for ages.
Two tests fixed in the testsuite, without breaking any other test.

ive queued the patch for 2.20.1.  i'll probably have to do a new one soon anyways for the mips patch failures.
