[Bug ld/27659] BFD (GNU Binutils for Debian) 2.36.1 internal error, aborting at ../../bfd/elfcode.h:224 in bfd_elf32_swap_symbol_out

--- Comment #15 from Gianfranco <costamagnagianfranco at yahoo dot it> ---
Hello, I meant to apply that patch already in mainline (applied to
elf_swap_symbol_in), also to elf_swap_symbol_out function!

Anyway, I applied your patch and rebuilt binutils in Ubuntu (latest snapshot of
2.37)
https://launchpad.net/~costamagnagianfranco/+archive/ubuntu/locutusofborg-ppa/+sourcepub/12524652/+listing-archive-extra

and then tried to run on a qemu-arm chroot (sadly I can't gdb or strace here!)
