Not doing so may cause all sorts of random libraries to expose
libcompiler_rt's functions, which should of course not be done.

into it. Prior to this commit the .gnu_debuglink section can have up
to 3 bytes of uninitialized garbage; as a result, .ko files could
change vary between builds.

read_initial_length detects pointer size by checking first
4 bytes of .debug_line and stores it in struct comp_unit_head *
passed to it as second argument. By passing NULL to a
read_initial_length we ignore actual pointer size (8 bytes) and
use default (4 bytes) which results in wrong offsets of header fields.
us up to version 2.17.50.20070703, at the last GPLv2 commit.
Amongst others, this added upstream support for some FreeBSD-specific
things that we previously had to manually hack in, such as the OSABI
label support, and so on.
There are also quite a number of new files, some for cpu's (e.g. SPU)
that we may or may not be interested in, but those can be cleaned up
later on, if needed.
asctime.c:
* Set errno to EINVAL and return "??? ??? ?? ??:??:?? ????\n" if
asctime_r is called with a NULL struct tm pointer. (Note that
asctime_r is called by ctime_r and asctime; asctime is called by
ctime.)
localtime.c:
* Set errno to EINVAL and return WRONG if time1 is called with a
NULL struct tm pointer; avoid dereference if a NULL struct tm
pointer is passed to timelocal, timegm, or timeoff. (Note that
time1 is called by mktime, timegm, and timeoff; mktime is called
by timelocal.)
* more core-avoidance work
* Change to set timezone and altzone based on time types with
greatest transition times (for the benefit of Asia/Seoul).
zic.8:
* Warning about case-sensitivity of names, but not of abbrevations
zic.c:
* Conditionally output extra types with most-recently-use offsets
last (for use by systems with pre-2011 versions of localtime.c,
helping to ensure that globals "altzone and "timezone" get set
correctly).
The code has been running for nearly four weeks on my laptop running
FreeBSD 8.1 without a problem.

64-bit PowerPC when linking multiple C++ files referencing the same
method, defined in a common header, when that method had a switch
statement with more than 4 cases. This change fixes compilation of LLVM
tblgen on 64-bit PPC with binutils 2.17.

Corresponds to git commit b458c361f01f7a257f897d0961d0a379ee999aaa.
This is currently (and most likely forever :) the last commit on this
branch.
The change made to bfd/elf.c in upstream revision 1.217.4.3 (which was a
revert of an earlier change), caused objcopy on powerpc to fail to copy
debug info from kernel modules. This had to be fixed by applying the
diff from upstream revision 1.243 on top of it.
