Create the scripts in emulations subdirectory and don't filter
them through mkscript.

Remove unused .SUFFIXES. Get libgcc.a path with gcc
-print-libgcc-file-name instead of $(libdir)/libgcc.a.

* Makefile.in, m68kcoff.sh, m68kcoff.sc-sh, config/m68k-coff.mt:
added m68k-coff emulation mode, stolen from a29k emulation.
Almost certainly wrong, but perhaps better than sun3.
Also fixed an error message in configure.in so that it started with
'***' like the other error messages do.
abs_output_section is what is required.
* ldwrite.c (ldwrite): use malloc to allocate the largest space
used, and pass that down.
* relax.c,relax.h (write_relaxnorel): use the passed malloc area rather
than alloca.
Tue Aug 18 13:41:36 1992 Ian Lance Taylor (ian@cygnus.com)
* configure.in: accept all m68K family members.
* Makefile.in: always create installation directories.
chars in filenames

the command line can't be found.
* ldlang.c (lang_output_section_statement_lookup): initilize new
field. (wild_doit): if new field is not set, then stop output
section from being loadable.

rules, since these are used when building a distribution.
* Makefile.in (ldlex.c): Don't re-direct output, since that
leaves a bogus output files if it fails.
* ldexp.c, ldlang.c, ldmain.c: reflect this
* ldver.c: bump version to 1.97.1
* ldindr.c (add_indirect): when an edict declaring an indirect
symbol is found, make sure that any ideas about the symbol being
common are changed if it now known to be defined.
* ldmain.c (linear_library): complain once if archive isn't
ranlibbed.
* ldlang.h, ldlang.c: make room for and initialize the complain
once field.
bfd too #.

rather than with raw malloc, makes it easier to track where memory
is going.
* ldsym.h, ldsym.c: create obstack for all global symbols too.
* ldwrite.c (ldwrite): moved malloc so only used when needed.
* sa29200-sc.sh: added support for .lit, data1 and data2 sections.
magic to converts scripts, since that is now handled
by genscripts.sh and the *.sc-sh scipt generators.
* config.h: Remove a bunch of macros defining emulations
and targets. This becomes one less file to edit when
adding emulations or targets.
* ldemul.h (struct ld_emulation_xfer_struct): Add
emulation_name and target_name fields.
* ldemul.c, ldemul.h: Define some default functions used
by most emulations (and remove from the *.em scripts).
* ldemul.c (ldemul_choose_target): Search the new
ld_emulations array using a loop (instead of a hardwired
nested if statement).
Define the ld_emulation from the automatically-geenrated
ldemul-list.h. This means you no longer have to edit ldemul.c
to add a new emulation.

macros. install using INSTALL_PROGRAM and INSTALL_DATA. remove
spaces following hyphens, bsd make can't cope. added
standards.text support and made it look like all the other
makefiles.
* configure.in: configure now runs entirely in objdir so make file
existence checks against ${srcdir}. Mark this directory as
target dependent.
Thu Dec 5 22:46:16 1991 K. Richard Pixley (rich at rtl.cygnus.com)
* Makefile.in: idestdir and ddestdir go away. Added copyrights
and shift gpl to v2. Added ChangeLog if it didn't exist. docdir
and mandir now keyed off datadir by default.
parameter, a format, and an arg pointer, and rename it to
vfinfo(). Write info() in terms of new vfinfo().
New einfo() is the same as info(), except it writes to stderr.
* ldemul.c, ldexp.c, ldlang.c, ldlnk960.c, ldmain.c, ldwrite.c,
ldmisc.c: Replace "error" calls to info() by new einfo().

options. (These need different alignment than ZMAGIC files.)
* Makefile.in: Add stuff for new foo.xn scripts.
These are generated by replacing "ALIGN(0x...00)" by ".".
by default. Don't the WP_TEXT and D_PAGED flags of
output_bfd here; it's too late, so set it when output_bfd
is created (in ldlang.c). Also fix setting of EXEC_P flag
* ldlang.c (ldlang_open_output): Set output_bfd->flags here.
* ldlang.c: Remove some duplicate extern declarations.
* ldgram.y: Fixes to -N and -n options.
