binutils-2.18 and U-Boot

[raptorbrino@aim.com]

Yah, that fix will fix part of the problem.  The macro
ELF_IS_SECTION_IN_SEGMENT has 3 parts to it, and parts 2
and 3 are susceptible to a wrap condition.  He fixed the
wrap in part3, but it also needs to be fixed in part2.
This patch should fix the wrap in part2.  Look good?

By the way, the mainline CVS does not build.  Is that common?

I think this problem has already been fixed in mainline CVS binutils.
See http://sourceware.org/ml/binutils/2007-11/msg00235.html
Please verify and close 5205 if so.
