I don't know if it matters or not since I am not planning to use 2.10.
There are many changes in the main trunk which are required for Linux.
2000-05-03 Martin v. Löwis <loewis@informatik.hu-berlin.de>
* elflink.h (elf_link_add_object_symbols): Reset dynindx for
hidden and internal symbols.
(elf_fix_symbol_flags): Clear NEEDS_PLT for symbols with
visibility.
* elflink.c (_bfd_elf_link_record_dynamic_symbol): Do not
assign a PLT or GOT entry to symbols with hidden and
internal visibility.
is one of them. Without it, gcc 3.0 may not work correctly. I am not
sure what else are mandatory for Linux since I include all of them.
But I cannot recommend them to everyone, given that I only test them
under Linux.
