Re: Fix EM_S390 value

Which one? patches@gnu.org ?

I will take great care to make the patch compliant to the GNU coding
style. Some questions about the copyright statements:
1) The year for the new 64 bit code will be 2000 or 2001? The first
   64 bit patch was published last December.
2) Does the copyright of moved files change? I don't think it should
   but I better ask.
3) Changes in "old" 31 bit files will get 2001 added to the year list.

>I suggest to split the patch in at least the following thunks:

elf/elf.h, linuxthreads/shlib-versions, scripts/config.guess,
scripts/config.sub, shlib-versions,

>- Changes for the existing 31bit S390.
This patch will contain the moves to the new s390-32 subdirectories.

>- The new 64 bit port.
Ack.
