Hello,

I decided to start a new thread for technical discussions of the new avrdude 
feature where it can read ELF files, from the "[avr-gcc-list] Re: 
[avrdude-dev] [RFC] avrdude Feature  RequestandCall for Volunteers".

One thing I noticed is this:

If we add new sections to the ELF file, won't it break old makefiles? Mostly 
the copy of ELF files to HEX. This part of the Makefile does the copy:

%.hex: %.elf
        @echo
        @echo $(MSG_FLASH) $@
        $(OBJCOPY) -O $(FORMAT) -R .eeprom $< $@

This copies everything EXCEPT for the .eeprom section. So when more sections 
are added, we either have to change the Makefile to remove those sections 
too, or change how the copy is done....

Any ideas?

Regards,

 -Colin
