Approved - please apply - but with one change:
> + bfd_vma p_start = p->p_paddr; /* octets */
Please could yoy change the format of these comments so that they follow
the GNU Coding Standard guidelines ? Ie, please start with a capital
letter and end with a period:
/* Octets. */
And similarly for you /* bytes */ comments - they should be /* Bytes. */
Thanks.
