Hi Tamar,

Agreed.  I thought about this some more, and I am now trying out a patch
which extends the bfd_arch_info structure with a field specifying the
maximum offset of a reloc from the start of an insn.  For most (all ?)
architectures I intend to set this to zero, and this will bypass the
double disassemble code in objdump...

Cheers
  Nick
