- Subject: binutils version of snapshot builds
The version for ld/as, when built from the snapshot tarballs is just the release
date ("070315"); using the snapshots to build software checking for a particular
binutils version usually breaks; all configure tests I've seen check for
X.Y[.Z]. A version like 2.17.50.070315 would make more sense (but currently does
not correlate with the version from a build from cvs ("2.17.50"). How could this
version information be unified?
