Thanks for the clarification.  I didn't see the "initially
empty" part at all implied by "new".  Frankly I think it's the
wrong solution to any copyright problem to introduce *another*
directory for these files.  Also, it seems odd to put it solely
under the binutils domain.  What about CGEN ports only intended
for simulators?
