Re: [PATCH 1/2] bfd: move the generation of the XCOFF .loader section after allocations

[pro@helflym.eu]

Hi Nick, 

Could you please apply it to me ? I'm no longer working for AIX, thus I don't have access to my setup anymore.
I might be able to do it later but not earlier than mid-May. Thus I would be grateful if you can do it for me. 

Thanks, 
Clément
