        * configure.in (host):  Use ${srcdir}/../bfd/configure.host rather

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

        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

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).

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

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.

        * arlex.l:  Don't include <sysdep.h> (unneeded conflicts).
        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.

        leaves a bogus output files if it fails.

        * arlex.l:  Make work with lex, for what it's worth.

          INSTALL_PROGRAM and INSTALL_DATA.

        * configure.in: configure now does all of it's work from objdir so

        * copy.c, is-strip.c, not-strip.c, maybe-strip.c, Makefile.in:
        Make the same change that we earlier did for ar/ranlib:
        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 (copy_file):  Set EXEC_P of output bfd if input is so.
        * copy.c (main):  If is_strip==-1, compare last 5 chars
        of argv[0], not the whole path.

        * ar.c, not-ranlib.c, maybe-ranlib.c:
        Change encoding of is_ranlib variable to be consistent

        * ar.c (get_pos_bfd): Fix to handling of before/after
        positioning options.

        type operands, as used by branch instructions.
        * nm.c:  Delegate printing of symbols to BFD,

Mon Oct 21 09:47:23 1991  Steve Chamberlain  (steve at rtl.cygnus.com)

        * nm.c: now doesn't crash if a symbol with no section and no

        Make two different binaries for ar and ranlib, instead of
        distinguishing them at run time using argv[0].
        (Old behavior is still available if you "make ar_with_ranlib",

        * objdump.c (display_info): Loop over integers, not enums,
        to appease old compilers.

Mon May 20 16:14:07 1991  Steve Chamberlain  (steve at cygint.cygnus.com)
