...I've said it again, but apparently it's worth a repeat.  Folks who
read the "gas" mailing lists will know that the bintuils folks have
stomped on OLF at least a couple of times.  I seriously doubt that
any binutils release will support it.  That doesn't sound very promising
to me _at all_.

Given that, looking at OLF would be, quite frankly, a silly idea.
