[PATCH v6 1/3] bfd: properly use bfd_get_symbol_leading_char in peXXigen.

Thu Apr 3 18:11:45 GMT 2025


This function returns the leading char to use, so we cannot just assume
it will always be '_' or '\0'.

After review, rationalize the error messages in
_bfd_XXi_final_link_postscript.  They now all correctly refer to
DataDirectory instead of DataDictionary, and use format strings so they
only need one translation.
