2.38 branch date approaching

[Jedidiah Thompson]

I’m not going to be at my computer for another week or so, but as soon as I am, I will send the updated patch.

Hi Jeddiah,

> Not to spam, but would you please review my aarch64-pe patches? I don't want it added to 2.38, as it doesn't have some important features needed (like relocations and DLL

Sure - but ... please could you send me a new version of the patch with a couple of changes ?

Specifically:

   * Please could you send the patch as an attachment, not inline.
     (For some reason my email reader keeps on wrapping long lines, which corrupts inline patches)

   * Please could you omit the changes to the gdb sources.
     (You will need separate approval from the gdb folks for that part).

   * Please could you omit the changes to the auto-generated files
     (eg configure, Makefile.in, etc).  I will regenerate the files
     myself.

   * If possible, please could you omit any formatting tweaks.
     eg replacing "# define" with "#define" and so on.

Cheers
   Nick
