Freeing ecoff_debug_info "pointers to the unswapped symbolic info"
isn't a simple matter, due to differing allocation strategies. In
_bfd_ecoff_slurp_symbolic_info the pointers are to objalloc memory.
In the ecoff linker they are to separately malloc'd memory. In gas we
have most (obj-elf) or all (obj-ecoff) into a single malloc'd buffer.
This patch fixes the leaks for binutils and ld, leaving the gas leaks
for another day. The mips elf backend already had this covered, and
the ecoff backend had a pointer, raw_syments used as a flag, so most
of the patch is moving these around a little so they are accessible
for both ecoff and elf.

The newer update-copyright.py fixes file encoding too, removing cr/lf
on binutils/bfdtest2.c and ld/testsuite/ld-cygwin/exe-export.exp, and
embedded cr in binutils/testsuite/binutils-all/ar.exp string match.
The result of running etc/update-copyright.py --this-year, fixing all
the files whose mode is changed by the script, plus a build with
--enable-maintainer-mode --enable-cgen-maint=yes, then checking
out */po/*.pot which we don't update frequently.
The copy of cgen was with commit d1dd5fcc38ead reverted as that commit
breaks building of bfp opcodes files.
Implement the ECOFF `.aent' pseudo-op for ECOFF-style `.mdebug' section
support with ELF objects and, for consistency, also with ECOFF objects.
This is so that the same MIPS source can be assembled without and with
`.mdebug' section generation enabled.
Taking the `gas/testsuite/gas/mips/aent.s' test case source as an
example and the `mips-linux' target we have:
$ as -o aent.o aent.s
$ as -mdebug -o aent.o aent.s
aent.s: Assembler messages:
aent.s:10: Error: unknown pseudo-op: `.aent'
$
because for the !ECOFF_DEBUGGING case (which is the default) the
pseudo-op is already handled by the MIPS backend with `s_mips_ent',
however no handler is present for the opposite case.
For the MIPS target this is a functional regression introduced with
commit ecb4347ade ("Last take: approval for MIPS_STABS_ELF killing"),
<https://sourceware.org/ml/binutils/2002-06/msg00443.html>, where
support for the `.mdebug' section was added along with its associated
`-mdebug'/`-no-mdebug' command-line options, bringing an inconsistency
between the assembly syntax supported for each of these options as far
as the `.aent' pseudo-op is concerned.
Assembly language documentation available describes the pseudo-op
respectively as follows[1]:
"
.aent name, symno Sets an alternate entry point for the current
procedure. Use this information when you want
to generate information for the debugger. It must
appear inside an .ent/.end pair."
and[2]:
"
.aent name [,symno]
Sets an alternate entry point for the current procedure. Use this
information when you want to generate information for the debugger.
This directive must appear between a pair of .ent and .end directives.
(The optional symno is for compiler use only. It refers to a dense
number in a .T file (symbol table).)"
Copy the approach from `s_mips_ent' then and add `.aent' support to the
`.ent' pseudo-op handler shared between the ELF and ECOFF object file
format backends, by setting BSF_FUNCTION for the symbol requested.

assembler. ie. You will be able to do "as --em=i386aout" on an x86
linux-elf assembler to generate aout format object files, rather than
using a separate assembler. The aout emulation is enabled by giving
"--enable-targets=i386-linuxaout" to configure.
Oh yeah, there's a couple of fixes too. Error messages shouldn't be
passed to printf in the format arg just in case someone puts a `%' in
the message.
