Hi Guys,
Thanks very much for reporting this problem.

You are correct - this bug exists in 2.24 and earlier versions of the
binutils. Fortunately however the bug has been fixed in the 2.25 release and
the forthcoming 2.26 release, so it is only a problem for legacy installations.
At this point I think that it is up to distribution maintainers to decide if
and how they want to patch this bug - assuming of course that they are using
the 2.24 (or earlier) sources.
Cheers
Nick
