Hello,

[recommend binutils@ for discussion]

I've create the branch:

cvs -d ... co -r cagney_bigcore-20040122-branch gdb+binutils

and committed my current >2gb core file patches (attached).  Finding all 
the binutils bugs this change tickles is starting to look like a long 
drawn out war.  Hopefully this branch will make it easier for others to 
test it on their system.

BTW, binutils, on its own has problems so it also needs the patch. 
objdump, for instance, appears to dump sections beyond 2gb as zero.

enjoy,
Andrew
