Pushed. Thanks for your work. BTW. I should have pointed out there is an
irc channel #elfutils on irc.freenode.net where sometimes some hackers
hang out who can help with issues.

After I pushed I noticed one small issue, which was only apparent
because I was doing a make distcheck to make sure we are ready for a
release. The new testfile should have been added to EXTRA_DIST. That was
easy to fix with the attached.

So, I think we are pretty ready for a release now. The only open issue
with respect to the tilegx backend is the failing elflint selftest where
there is some disagreement about the _GLOBAL_OFFSET_TABLE_ symbol. But
we can resolve that later. I am still not sure whether elflint is too
strict here, or your toolchain is suboptimal. Could you start a new
thread or reply to
https://lists.fedorahosted.org/pipermail/elfutils-devel/2012-August/002500.html and we will get to the bottom of it.

Thanks,

Mark
