- Things that still need to be done: -*- Text -*-
- o - A source of space lossage is that all the target-dependent code
- is in a single bfd_target structure. Hence all the code for
- *writing* object files is still pulled into all the applications
- that only care about *reading* (gdb, nm, objdump), while gas has
- to carry along all the unneeded baggage for reading objects. And
- so on. This would be a substantial change, and the payoff would
- not all that great (essentially none if bfd is used as a shared
- library).
- o - The storage needed by BFD data structures is also larger than strictly
- needed. This may be difficult to do much about.
- o - implement bfd_abort, which should close the bfd but not alter the
- filesystem.
- o - update the bfd doc; write a how-to-write-a-backend doc, take out
- the stupid quips and fill in all the blanks.
- o - upgrade the reloc handling as per Steve's suggestion.
