in "upgrading" the binutils-2.17 patches for 2.18, i'm confused by
the following file:
binutils/patches/2.17/501-avr32-fix-pool-alignment.patch
contents:
Index: a/gas/config/tc-avr32.c

/* Assume none of the entries are discarded, and that we need the

but there *is* no such file "gas/config/tc-avr32.c" in
binutils-2.17, so what is that patch supposed to represent? there
*is* a tc-avr.c, but that shouldn't matter. and i'm assuming that all
of these package patches are to be applied to the original source
before any configuration, yes?
so i'm not sure what that patch file is doing. or am i must
misunderstanding something basic about the patch process?

p.s. that patch definitely doesn't apply to tc-avr.c, in case you
were wondering. :-)
