I'm hoping that your patch will be approved soon to fix that.
Nick, is there any reason not to approve HJ's patch?

The objection raised to that patch was more an issue with the original
patch that adds the --compress-debug-sections option to gas, not with
HJ's patch to make the rest of binutils support the files that gas
produces.
