Thanks.  A nice little patch there for the "bug", which I'll use
locally until Someone does TRT.  Speaking of DTRT, I see
<URL: http://sources.redhat.com/ml/binutils/2001-06/msg00559.html >.
Any news about that?  Did something come out of it?  What can I
(or Someone) do to help?

In the meantime, there's a serious misunderstanding of linkonce
functionality between gcc and binutils in CVS.

brgds, H-P
