Hi Neil,

> The patch is relative to binutils-2_24 (which is where I'll ultimately need it) but is equally applicable to trunk.  (The glibc patch is relative to a lightly customized 2.16 but again is equally applicable to trunk.)  As this is my first attempt at a patch for the linker, I've omitted the ChangeLog and test cases for the moment, pending feedback.  Technical and procedural criticism is gratefully welcomed.  I should very much like to thank the many who have taken the time to post on these and related subjects over the years -- I would have found even this modest attempt very difficult without the historical context.  Particular thanks are due to Michael Meeks, Jakub Jelinek, Richard Sandiford, and Hiroki Kaminaga.  Errors in comprehension and judgement are entirely my own.

The patch is fine, and I would be happy to apply it.  But I need to 
check one thing first - do you have an FSF binutils copyright assignment 
on file ?  Copyright assignments for various other employees at Cisco 
are currently on file, but I could not find your name.

Cheers
   Nick

PS.  Sorry for taking so long to review the patch.  I was hoping that 
one of the MIPS maintainers would like it over.
