Nick,

That's fine.  What's a good way to report the set of tests I've run
against?  I am currently using this Makefile for testing:

   https://raw.githubusercontent.com/T-J-Teru/binutils-gdb-testing/master/Makefile

which runs against 245 targets I've found from various sources.  I
expect there's probably some duplication in there, one day I'll try to
reduce the list...

Should I include the list of targets with the patch, or just include
a link to the test script?

Thanks,
Andrew
