A little more on the 2.10 COFF problem


Setup: DJGPP (COFF) and with binutils sources 2.9.1 & Oct 8 2.10 
snapshot.

The problem is that while the 2.10 snapshot generates object files of 
the exact same length as 2.9, the 2.10 object file is different despite 
using the same input file. I don't think there's supposed to a difference 
in object files produces by such a simple program:

#include <stdio.h>

int main()
{
  printf("Hello World!\n");
  return 0;
}

And the program generated by the 2.10's as.exe and ld.exe doesn't run 
either. When compiling 2.10 with 2.10 exe's, object file warnings 
appear that didn't when 2.10 is compiled with 2.9.

If someone could confirm what I'm pointing out, I'd much appreciate it, 
thanks.

Mark
