 I forgot to mentionin the PR:
 
 when i ran 'make headers' in my build dir (i didn't build using the nb
 infra), I found that bfd-in2.h got some random stuff added (VAX
 ELF-related). =A0This means that somebody didn't regen that header
 properly when they made changes elsewhere. =A0(I stripped that, and
 other unrelated changes caused by a 'normal' configure/build, out of
 the patch I sent.)
 
 That should probably be fixed.
 
 
 Also, I've now sent this patch upstream to binutils, who may prefer a
 different option letter. =A0If they do, I'll update this PR... and you
 *really* should use the same option letter that they do! =A08-)
