  These tarballs were made with the "-r <date>" option supported by
  the src-release.sh script.  This attempts to make reproducible
  tarballs by sorting the files and passing the "--mtime=<date>" option
  to tar.  The date used for these tarballs was obtained by running:

     git log -1 --format=%cd --date=format:%F bfd/version.m4

  As this is an even numbered release, the sources for the GOLD
  linker are included.

  This release contains numerous bug fixes, and also the following new
  features:

    * Support for new instructions added to AMD, ARM and RISC-V
      architectures.

    * Support for version 3 of the SFrame standard.

    * The readelf program can now display the contents of Global Offset
      Tables.

    * Improved linker tagging support.
