Yes.

A couple of pointers for future patches, should you make them:

  * Please include ChangeLog entry(s) for the changes you make.  I
    have generated them for you this time.

  * Please generate your patches using "diff -c3p" or "cvs diff -c3p"
    depending upon whether you use cvs.

  * When referring to a previously submitted patch including the URL
    for the mail message in the binutils mail archive is very helpful.

  * You patch included some text at the end that looked like it might
    have been intended to be a test case, but it was not documented or
    explained, so I have ignored it:


      .file "i386\\atlssup.asm"
          @comp.id:
          @comp.id = 0xe1c83
          __tls_array = 0x2c
          .globl __tls_array
      .text
      .data
      
      #include <windows.h>
      DWORD _tls_start __attribute__ ((section (".tls"))) = 0;
      DWORD _tls_end __attribute__ ((section (".tls$ZZZ"))) = 0;
      DWORD _tls_index = 0;
      PIMAGE_TLS_CALLBACK __xl_a __attribute__ ((section (".CRT$XLA"))) = 0;
      PIMAGE_TLS_CALLBACK __xl_z __attribute__ ((section (".CRT$XLZ"))) = 0;
      IMAGE_TLS_DIRECTORY _tls_used = {(DWORD)&_tls_start, (DWORD)&_tls_end, &_tls_index, &__xl_a, 0, 0};    

Cheers
        Nick
