- Subject: [rfa] make bfd_set_section_contents buffer param constant
Hello,
(almost obvious :-)
This makes the buffer parameter passed into bfd_set_section_contents
constant. The only effect is +ve - remove the need to cast away "const"
when calling the method with a constant buffer.
ok?

* section.c (bfd_set_section_contents): Make the "location" buffer
constant.
* bfd-in2.h: Re-generate.
