IA-64 patch for binutils-2.11?

[Jim Wilson]

A gcc-3 bug fix today exposed a latent assembler bug.  I added the following
patch to the trunk today, but it would be nice if there was a way to get
it into a 2.11 follow on release.  Is there a policy for this?  Can I
still check in patches to the 2.11 release branch?

	* tc-ia64.c (is_conditional_branch): Return true for br, brl, and br.
	excluding br.i.
