4200	binutils-2.30.0	bdubbs@…	lfs-book@…	"New minor version.

But it is at ftp://sourceware.org/pub/binutils/snapshots/

Binutils:

Changes in 2.30:

* Add --debug-dump=links option to readelf and --dwarf=links option to objdump
  which displays the contents of any .gnu_debuglink or .gnu_debugaltlink
  sections.

*  Add a --debug-dump=follow-links option to readelf and a --dwarf=follow-links
  option to objdump which causes indirect links into separate debug info files
  to be followed when dumping other DWARF sections.

gas changes:

Changes in 2.30:

* Add support for loaction views in DWARF debug line information.

ld changes:
Changes in 2.30:

* Add -z separate-code to generate separate code PT_LOAD segment.

* Add ""-z undefs"" command line option as the inverse of the ""-z defs"" option.

* Add -z globalaudit command line option to force audit libraries to be run
  for every dynamic object loaded by an executable - provided that the loader
  supports this functionality.

* Tighten linker script grammar around file name specifiers to prevent the use
  of SORT_BY_ALIGNMENT and SORT_BY_INIT_PRIORITY on filenames.  These would
  previously be accepted but had no effect.

* The EXCLUDE_FILE directive can now be placed within any SORT_* directive
  within input section lists.
