I have got the latest cvs although having to rebuild gcc with the new
binutils each time is currently slowing my testing.

However looking at the CVS code I couldn't find:

* The correct .interp setting for the linker
* The additional sections

Hence I thought it best to post the patches I had so far for comment.
Have you tested on 64 bit binaries? Of course it could be that our
subject app triggered some additional stuff when my colleague was
bootstraping this stuff last year.

I'll be quite happy if none of the patches are needed :-)
