- Subject: Sanity check on ARM BE8 patch
I have a patch that makes ARM BE8 format (bigendian, but code is
littleendian) disassemble correctly, but even though the patch only
affects opcodes/ and objdump, the most straightforward place to add a
test is in the ld testsuite, because only the linker can create the
files via --be8, no way to get be8 .o files out of gas. So I just
wanted to check that adding an ld test actually seemed sensible before I
started to write it.
