Well, this is not for us to decide.  The question for us is how to best
support this in binutils.

I just wanted to give you guys a heads-up that besides Lexra other processors
might have similar requirements so generalizing the solution is likely to be
beneficial in the long run.  Beyond this, this is up to the maintainers...
