   It doesn't solve my problems.

Can you explain why?

Doug is right: if you send in a patch, it will at least be archived.
What is wrong with that?  If you don't send in a patch, it will be
ignored.

I know it is frustrating when it takes a long time to approve a patch.
However, not sending in the patch at all is not a solution.

Who needs sleep?  I checked this in.

	   * elflink.h (elf_bfd_final_link): Handle the global symbols

I checked this in.

	   * elf32-i386.c (elf_howto_table): Fix 8/16-bit relocations.

I don't seem to have a copy of this.  Alan indicated that he has
looked at it.
