Hi Jozef,

I am looking over this patch at the moment, but I do have one question first -
do you - or your employer - have an FSF copyright assignment in place for binutils 
contributions ?  If not then we unfortunately will not be able to accept the patch.

If you need details on how to obtain a copyright assignment, I can provide you with
the information that you will need.

Cheers
  Nick
