This release contains numerous bug fixes, and also the
following new features:
In the assembler:
* Add support for location views in DWARF debug line information.
In the BFD linker:
* Add -z separate-code to generate separate code PT_LOAD segment.
* Add "-z undefs" command line option as the inverse of the "-z defs" option.
* Add -z globalaudit command line option to force audit libraries to be run
for every dynamic object loaded by an executable - provided that the loader
supports this functionality.
* Tighten linker script grammar around file name
specifiers to prevent the use of SORT_BY_ALIGNMENT and
SORT_BY_INIT_PRIORITY on filenames. These would
previously be accepted but had no effect.
* The EXCLUDE_FILE directive can now be placed within any
SORT_* directive within input section lists.
In the GOLD linker:
* Add support for .MIPS.options sections (MIPS only).
* Add support for compound relocations (MIPS only).
* Add --emit-stub-syms, --no-tls-optimize, --tls-get-addr-optimize
options (PowerPC only).
* Add -z text-unlikely-segment option.
* Add plugin support for adding new input files
(LDPT_REGISTER_NEW_INPUT_HOOK).
In the utilities:
* Add --debug-dump=links option to readelf and
--dwarf=links option to objdump which displays the
contents of any .gnu_debuglink or .gnu_debugaltlink
sections.
* Add a --debug-dump=follow-links option to readelf and a
--dwarf=follow-links option to objdump which causes indirect
links into separate debug info files to be followed when
dumping other DWARF sections.
