A couple of points with this part of the patch:
* You should document the new command line switches supported by nm
and ar in the binutils/doc/binutils.texi file. Plus the switches should
be mentioned briefly in the --help output of these two tools.
* You should mention the new feature in the binutils/NEWS file.
* Ideally you should add a test or two to the binutils testsuite to
check the plugin support. This might be kind of tricky to write however...
Cheers
Nick
