BFD msbin patch

[Greg Banks]

G'day,

  I have a patch to BFD which adds read and write support for the
Microsoft .BIN format, which is a simple format for downloading
binaries to embedded targets.  It's similar in concept to S-records
but more efficient to transfer and correspondingly less robust in
the presence of communication errors.

  Before I submit it, I need a couple of newbie questions answered.

1.  My patch is against 2.11.2, should I update it to be against
    the latest CVS before submitting?

2.  Should I submit generated changes to configure and Makefile.in?
    The problem is I'm currently running a different version of
    autoconf, and there are spurious changes.

Greg.
