Hi,
I've been using libbfd to read winnt "pe" format executable files. I
had a problem with reading some files created by recent versions of
"Microsoft Visual Studio" (blech) and traced the problem to a
self-admitted hack in peicode.h which turned out not to work anyway.
I've fixed the bug and removed the original hack, replacing it with a
somewhat less ugly and more functional hack of my own.
Is anyone interested in this fix? If so, how should I go about
submitting it?
(Incidentally I'm working from the snapshot dated 000403, in case this
has been fixed in the meantime)
