Hi,

I am working on ia32 linker bug:

http://sourceware.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=3966

where IA32 32bit address wrap around doesn't work with 32bit host.
My proposed solution is to use 64bit bfd for ia32 targets. But
I am not sure if ix86 PE works with 64bit bfd:

http://sourceware.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=3961

Can you check it out? You can configure binutils with
--enable-64-bit-bfd to use 64bit bfd.

Thanks.


H.J.
