Re: [RFA] Make objcopy handle core files.

[Alan Modra <amodra at bigpond dot net dot au>]

Hi Michael,
  I notice that objcopy on corefiles creates section headers where none
existed before.  Perhaps that can be viewed as a feature rather than
a bug, but it's a little disconcerting to find that

  objcopy core1 core2

results in files that aren't even the same size.  I'm not too worried,
but a small note in binutils.texi would be good.
