Hi,

I'm attempting to create a port for KMD (Komodo Manchester Debugger) but
it requires libiberty and libbfd, in addition to their include files.
These are all part of binutils and as such are available in
/usr/obj/usr/src/gnu/usr.bin/binutils.  However, they are not much use
to me there.

  Can anybody tell me how I would go about handling this?  I spoke to
the developer about including a copy of libiberty and libbfd in the kmd
source but he thought this was a bad idea.  What should I do?

  Thanks very much,

-lewiz.
