	Hi!
	Attached is a patch that updates the devel/binutils port to the latest 
	version, 2.23.  This is a minor version, and looking at the release 
	notes I can't see anything suprising.  Nonetheless it would be very good 
	to have it tested before I commit the update (sometime after 9.1 when 
	the ports tree is unfrozen).  I am especially interested in testing on 
	things not i386 or amd64, since I only have access to those architectures.
	When applying the patch, remember to add -E to patch, to remove empty files.
	Thank you!

It installed fine on ia64 and sparc64, both -current.
I don't know how to test. Please advise if there are
simple tests.

Also, just to check, I manually deleted *orig files
from under files/ after applying the patch:

# ls -al /usr/ports/devel/binutils/files/
total 20
drwxr-xr-x  2 root  wheel  1024 Nov 14 12:58 .
drwxr-xr-x  4 root  wheel   512 Nov 14 13:00 ..
-rw-r--r--  1 root  wheel   353 Nov 14 12:55 patch-bfd_Makefile.in
-rw-r--r--  1 root  wheel   297 Nov 14 12:55 patch-gold_Makefile.in
-rw-r--r--  1 root  wheel   471 Nov 14 12:55 patch-gold_script.cc
# 

because I think all files in this directory
will be used as patches, no matter the name.
Am I wrong?

Anton
