- Update to binutils 2.37:
  * The GNU Binutils sources now requires a C99 compiler and library to
    build.
  * Support for the arm-symbianelf format has been removed.
  * Support for Realm Management Extension (RME) for AArch64 has been
    added.
  * A new linker option '-z report-relative-reloc' for x86 ELF targets
    has been added to report dynamic relative relocations.
  * A new linker option '-z start-stop-gc' has been added to disable
    special treatment of __start_*/__stop_* references when
    --gc-sections.
  * A new linker options '-Bno-symbolic' has been added which will
    cancel the '-Bsymbolic' and '-Bsymbolic-functions' options.
  * The readelf tool has a new command line option which can be used to
    specify how the numeric values of symbols are reported.
    --sym-base=0|8|10|16 tells readelf to display the values in base 8,
    base 10 or base 16.  A sym base of 0 represents the default action
    of displaying values under 10000 in base 10 and values above that in
    base 16.
  * A new format has been added to the nm program.  Specifying
    '--format=just-symbols' (or just using -j) will tell the program to
    only display symbol names and nothing else.
  * A new command line option '--keep-section-symbols' has been added to
    objcopy and strip.  This stops the removal of unused section symbols
    when the file is copied.  Removing these symbols saves space, but
    sometimes they are needed by other tools.
  * The '--weaken', '--weaken-symbol' and '--weaken-symbols' options
    supported by objcopy now make undefined symbols weak on targets that
    support weak symbols. 
  * Readelf and objdump can now display and use the contents of .debug_sup

- Update to binutils 2.35:
  * The asseembler can now produce DWARF-5 format line number tables.
  * Readelf now has a "lint" mode to enable extra checks of the files it is processing.
  * Readelf will now display "[...]" when it has to truncate a symbol name.  
    The old behaviour - of displaying as many characters as possible, up to
    the 80 column limit - can be restored by the use of the --silent-truncation
    option.
  * The linker can now produce a dependency file listing the inputs that it
    has processed, much like the -M -MP option supported by the compiler.
