Re: Heads up on binutils214

[Dave Cuthbert <dacut@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Is there any advantage to writing a version of binutils under a BSD
license?

I've never been terribly happy with the binutils linker; right now,
it's the bottleneck in a couple of projects here at work -- lack of
incremental linking, 50 MB of object files, and an overloaded NFS
server means that, if you change anything, you might as well go get
a cup of coffee and take your time about it.

So a new linker is moving up the priority list for me.  (Hm, is this
what they meant when they docked me on my performance review for "can
stray if something more interesting comes along"? <g>)
