Hi Kor,

Yes and no.

In order to support the ARM7TDMIE part of the processor no changes are 
needed to binutils.

In order to support the DSP co-processor changes might be necessary 
depending upon what sort of co-processor it is.  ie if support for this 
co-processor has not already been added to binutils then you will have 
to implement it yourself.

Cheers
