Approved - please apply - but with one change:
 
> +	      bfd_vma p_start = p->p_paddr;                /* octets */

Please could yoy change the format of these comments so that they follow
the GNU Coding Standard guidelines ?  Ie, please start with a capital
letter and end with a period:

  /* Octets.  */

And similarly for you /* bytes */ comments - they should be /* Bytes.  */

Thanks.
