new gcc and binutils RPMS was Re: Problems with arm-rtems-gcc

[Joel Sherrill]

I had actually just put them on the ftp site.  There are
new RPMS for:

  binutils 2.11.2 
  gcc 2.95.3+newlib 1.9.0

NOTE: binutils 2.11.2 still seems to be broken for sh-coff. We are
      locally still using the last binutils 2.10 RPMs and those were
      used to build the new gcc RPMS.

Please report problems to the list.

If I type " arm-rtems-gcc ... -fpack-struct ... ", there is no error happening, but the structures in my program will not be packed.
