You might like to include their names and email addresses in the
appropriate ChangeLog entries, so they are credited for the work that
they have done.

I did have a look over the patch, but there was nothing glaring that I
thought might cause problems. One thing that you might like to consider
now that this patch has been comitted is to upgrade the xtensa specific
files (eg: tc-xtensa.c, tc-xtensa.h, elf32-xtensa.c, xtensa-dis.c) to
ISO C90.
Cheers
Nick
