Hi Niki,

> is this going to be fixed in binutils?

If you can find an explanation for the why the .exception_ranges section has an
 invalid sh_link value of 65280 then we will fix the binutils.  But at the
moment the tools are quite reasonably rejecting the file as not being a valid
sparc-elf binary, because of this discrepancy.

My guess is that Solaris is using the sh_link field for some non-standard
purpose.  But what purpose ?

Cheers
  Nick
