Hi Salvador,

  The patch was fine.  There were two problems however:

    1.  You omitted to include an entry for the ChangeLog describing
        the patch.  (I have generated one for you this time).

    2.  You do not have a copyright assignment on file with the FSF.
        (Well not for binutils contribution anyway).  In general we
        cannot accept patches or other contributions without such an
        assignment.  In the case of this particular patch however I
        feel that it falls into the "simple and obvious" category and
        so is exempt from the copyright assignment requirement.

Thank you for submitting this patch.  I have applied it to the
sources.

Cheers
