Re: [Bug ld/698] error linking dll on pe

Hi Cal,

  [Sourceware appears to be down at the moment, so I am sending this 
directly to you].

Indeed - but with a small test case I can test a fix that will at least 
remove the abort and replace it with a sensible error message.  (My 
point being that I am not overly familiar with the ARM PE environment, 
so it is going to be much easier for you to create a small testcase than 
it is for me to guess how to built a DLL and then an suitable object 
file and then try to link them together).

Cheers
