Hi Rafael,
Sorry for the long delay in replying this time - I have been away on
vacation for the last two weeks.
The patch is good - I have now checked it in. There was only one
small issue - the ar and nm programs were listing --plugin in their
--help output even when they were not configured with plugin support
enabled. I have fixed this.

Hmm, I have not looked into this, but I think that it should be
possible. It might take some effort since gold uses a different test
harness to the rest of the binutils but in theory it can be done.
Cheers
