Mon Aug 17 18:33:41 1992  Per Bothner  (bothner@rtl.cygnus.com)

Tue Aug 11 23:42:21 1992  Per Bothner  (bothner@cygnus.com)

	* ar.c (main):  Don't *always* set the verbose flag!

Wed Aug  5 11:25:27 1992  Per Bothner  (bothner@rtl.cygnus.com)

	* copy.c:  When is_strip (because it is invoked as the strip
	program), follow traditional argv processing:
	'strip file1 file2' now strips file1 and file2, rather
	than stripping file1 (as input), leaving output in file2.

Mon Jul 27 16:28:08 1992  Per Bothner  (bothner@rtl.cygnus.com)

	* objdump.c (display_info, display_info_table):  Call
	bfd_set_format() on dummy bfd before using it (twice).
	* ar.c:  Make sure archive is created on command 'r'
	even when no elements are inserted.  (Clean up and
	simplify some non-working related code.)

Mon Jul 20 02:48:38 1992  D. V. Henkel-Wallace  (gumby@cygnus.com)

	* configure.in: hppa support doesn't assume hp OS (from sef).

Sat Jul 18 14:35:22 1992  david d `zoo' zuhn  (zoo at cirdan.cygnus.com)

	* configure.in: recognize hppa hosts (bsd & hpux), error messages

Fri Jul 17 18:39:44 1992  K. Richard Pixley  (rich@rtl.cygnus.com)

	* ar.1, binutils.texi, i960-pinsn.c, nm.1, objdump.1, ranlib.1,
	  size.1, sparc-pinsn.c, strip.1: removed rcsid's.

Wed Jun 24 13:48:07 1992  Per Bothner  (bothner@cygnus.com)

	(Their lack screwed up numeric_forward().)

Sun Jun 14 10:33:27 1992  John Gilmore  (gnu at cygnus.com)

	* objdump.c (dump_elf_stabs):  Also dump .stab.index and
	.stab.excl sections.

Thu Jun 11 01:19:06 1992  John Gilmore  (gnu at cygnus.com)

	* objdump.c (dump_elf_stabs): New feature: --stabs prints out a
	.stab section from an ELF file.  Installed under #ifdef
	ELF_STAB_DISPLAY so it can be easily disabled, since it requires
	bfd-internals header files and such.
	* objdump.1, binutils.texi:  Update for --stabs.  Also fix
	objdump's doc to use -- rather than + for long options.
	(FIXME:  Not yet fixed everywhere in binutils.texinfo.)

Wed Jun 10 07:53:24 1992  Steve Chamberlain  (sac@thepub.cygnus.com)

	Add declaration of strdup().

Fri May 22 13:40:37 1992  Per Bothner  (bothner@cygnus.com)

	* Makefile.in:  Use srcdir instead of VPATH in ldgram/ldlex
	rules, since these are used when building a distribution.
	* Makefile.in (arlex.c):  Don't re-direct output, since that
	leaves a bogus output files if it fails.

	* arlex.l:  Make work with lex, for what it's worth.
	* Makefile.in:  Better lex support.
	* Makefile.in (dist):  Generate flex and bison outputs
	for distribution.

	* copy.c, is-strip.c, not-strip.c, maybe-strip.c, Makefile.in:

	Generate two different binaries for strip and copy and use
	a global variable with different values to distinguish
	ostrip from copy.  (-1 means to use argv[0] to decide,
	so you can get the old behavior, but it is no longer the default).

	* copy.c (main):  If is_strip==-1, compare last 5 chars
	of argv[0], not the whole path.

	now failing if asked for a duplicate section.
	* strip.c, ostrip.c:  Removed obsolete files.
	* ar.c, not-ranlib.c, maybe-ranlib.c:
	Change encoding of is_ranlib variable to be consistent

	* nm.c:  Delegate printing of symbols to BFD,

	shell implementation of ranlib.
