Complaints to alex
It turns out there was a communication problem between Alex and myself. A little background: in r17811 Alex introduced a line in an asm file which failed to compile on older binutils. I talked to him about this on IRC and proposed a workaround. The communication problem was that I thought he rejected the workaround, while Alex thought he ok'ed the workaround and thought I would make the change. Result: workaround not applied and 2 people pissed-off at each other. My apologies to Alex for the remark quoted above, which was inappropriate even if he hadn't agreed to the workaround.
