Thanks!

A few more questions:

1.) Has anyone had a chance to review this yet?

http://sources.redhat.com/ml/binutils/2004-04/msg00329.html

2.) I'm trying to decide what version number should go in the
gcc_GAS_CHECK_FEATURE macro test for .secrel32 in my gcc patch.  I assume
if this is not applied to the branch that it should be 2.16.0, otherwise
2.15.0?

3.) Any chance this stuff could go on the branch?  I would minimally need:

Approved for HEAD:
http://sources.redhat.com/ml/binutils/2004-04/msg00327.html

I guess this one might be risky?
http://sources.redhat.com/ml/binutils/2004-04/msg00247.html

Not yet approved:
http://sources.redhat.com/ml/binutils/2004-04/msg00329.html

It would also be nice to have:

Approved for HEAD:
http://sources.redhat.com/ml/binutils/2004-03/msg00543.html
http://sources.redhat.com/ml/binutils/2004-03/msg00541.html

If any are approved, I'd be happy to merge them onto the branch and
check them in.  Thanks again.
