Re: PATCH: Rearrange SEC_XXX bits

H. J. Lu wrote: 
We have very limited space in BFD section flag. But SEC_ARCH_BIT_0 is
never used. There are also some COFF and TI specific bits. This patch
removes SEC_ARCH_BIT_0 and makes COFF/TI specific bits for COFF/TI
only so that other format/target can reuse those bits.

FYI, this looks to break gdb's dump.exp testcase (that test writes out then reads back random object file formats verifying the result). Right now I consider this 'weird'.
