Can we make this the default? Certainly I have had no problems with
the earlier egcs 1.0.3 which I have been using by default for a long
while now.

Matthias,

I have been slack about feeding the changes I made back to FSF and the
egcs crowd and I understand there were a couple of extra minor changes
needed for 1.1. We need to get these fed back otherwise we will be
patching in perpetutity!

For some time I have been keeping binutils up to date for the ns32k. I
did the ns32k bfd support. HOWEVER, it doesn't have ns32k shared library
support. I don't really understand what is necessary here. Anyone want
to help?
