Note that bfd-in2.h is a generated file. There is no need to send
patches for it. Instead, send patches to the source files.
To rebuild bfd-in2.h from sources, use `make headers'.
Also, I think this patch is wrong. Generally, functions which are
invoked from outside BFD should be declared in bfd.h. Header files
like libxcoff.h are for local use within BFD only. I put those
functions in bfd.h in the first place because they are called by the
linker from outside BFD. I don't think the linker should include
libxcoff.h.
Also, I note that people will certainly ask you for ChangeLog entries,
so be prepared to send those. Perhaps you already plan to do this.
