Hi Everyone,

  We are pleased to announce that version 2.32 of the GNU Binutils project
  sources have been released and are now available for download at:

     https://ftp.gnu.org/gnu/binutils
     https://sourceware.org/pub/binutils/releases/

     md5 checksums:
       64f8ea283e571200f8b2b7f66fe8a0d6  binutils-2.32.tar.bz2
       d1119c93fc0ed3007be4a84dd186af55  binutils-2.32.tar.gz
       3f1013fc8c5b18e1c28ba5c018a4110c  binutils-2.32.tar.lz
       0d174cdaf85721c5723bf52355be41e6  binutils-2.32.tar.xz

  This release contains numerous bug fixes, and also the following new
  features:

    * The binutils now support for the C-SKY processor series.

    * The x86 assembler now supports a -mvexwig=[0|1] option to control
      encoding of VEX.W-ignored (WIG) VEX instructions.

      It also has a new -mx86-used-note=[yes|no] option to generate (or
      not) x86 GNU property notes.  

    * The MIPS assembler now supports the Loongson EXTensions R2 (EXT2),
      the Loongson EXTensions (EXT) instructions, the Loongson Content
      Address Memory (CAM) ASE and the Loongson MultiMedia extensions
      Instructions (MMI) ASE.

    * The addr2line, c++filt, nm and objdump tools now have a default
      limit on the maximum amount of recursion that is allowed whilst
      demangling strings.  This limit can be disabled if necessary.

    * Objdump's --disassemble option can now take a parameter,
      specifying the starting symbol for disassembly.  Disassembly will
      continue from this symbol up to the next symbol or the end of the
      function.

    * The BFD linker will now report property change in linker map file
      when merging GNU properties.

    * The BFD linker's -t option now doesn't report members within
      archives, unless -t is given twice.  This makes it more useful
      when generating a list of files that should be packaged for a
      linker bug report.

   * The GOLD linker has improved warning messages for relocations that
     refer to discarded sections.

  Our thanks go out to all of the binutils contributors, past and
  present, for helping to make this release possible.

Cheers
  Nick Clifton
