+* objcopy and strip can now take wildcard patterns in symbol names specified on
+ the command line provided that the --wildcard switch is used to enable them.
+
+* readelf can now parse archives.
+
+* objdump now accepts --debugging-tags to print the debug information in a
+ format compatible with ctags tool.
+
+* objcopy and strip now accept --only-keep-debug to create a file containing
+ those sections that would be stripped out by --strip-debug. The idea is that
+ this can be used in conjunction with the --add-gnu-debuglink switch to create
+ a two part program distribution - one a stripped executable and the other the
+ debugging info.
+
+* objcopy now accepts --add-gnu-debuglink=<file> to insert a .gnu_debuglink
+ section into a (presumably stripped) executable. This allows the debug
+ information for the file to be held in a separate file.
+
+* BFD marks the sections .comment and .note as 'n' in the BSD/POSIX
+ single-character representation. This can be checked by running nm
+ with the -a switch.
+
+Changes in 2.14:
+
+* Added --info switch to objcopy and strip.
+
+* Support for Vitesse IQ2000 added by Red Hat.
+
+* Added 'S' encoding to strings to allow the display of 8-bit characters.
+
+* Added --prefix-symbols=<text>, --prefix-sections=<text> and
+ --prefix-alloc-sections=<text> to objcopy.
+
+* readelf can handle the extensions to the DWARF2 spec used by the Unified
+ Parallel C compiler.
+
* BFD no longer declares a "boolean" type, to avoid clashes with other
headers that declare the same. Users of BFD should replace boolean,
false and true, with int, 0 and 1, or define their own boolean type.
Changes in binutils 2.5:
* Changed objdump -dr to dump the relocs interspersed with the assembly
- listing, for a more useful listing of relocateable files.
+ listing, for a more useful listing of relocatable files.
* Changed objdump -d/--disassemble to only disassemble SEC_CODE sections.
Added -D/--disassemble-all option to disassemble all sections.
