Do you know when a fixed binutils is due?  This may explain one
bug report I have right here at Strakt.  Solaris is the preferred
platform of our beta-testing customer, Chalmers, so I would like
PyTie to run on as many Solaris-including hardware and software
platforms as possible.  I'll bring this up in a meeting.  Right now
are you advising people not to use GCC 3.2 or binutils 2.13? or
do you have other advice for them which you can steer me towards?
