Hi Nick,
I'll have a look. At first sight it seems the other configurations
change a bl from arm to thumb into blx and arm-netbsdelf and arm-nto
don't. I haven't looked at what code does this, but I'll go do some more
digging. I am also surprised it does so without warning, whereas when it
transforms a blx into a bl it does warn.
Anyhow, I'm having a look and will come back to you. No good deed goes
unpunished ;)
Kind Regards,
Andre
