Hi Alan,

  I assume that you still object to the patch, on the grounds that it is fixing
a problem that is not the binutils fault ?

  One thing that did occur to me was that it might be useful to add a new
option to objcopy so that it could adjust the absolute addresses inside DWARF
sections.  Sort of like --change-section-address, but for debug info.  Then if
a someone does use rebase to alter the load address of a DLL, then will have
the option of being able to update the debug info inside the DLL as well.

  I looked at the rebase sources, but adapting them seemed a bit hairy to me. 
(Probably because of unfamiliarity).

Cheers
  Nick
