# file q821982.exe # it's a microsoft patch I had lying around q821982.exe: MS-DOS executable (EXE), OS/2 or MS Windows # objdump -f q821982.exe q821982.exe: file format efi-app-ia32 architecture: i386, flags 0x0000010a: EXEC_P, HAS_DEBUG, D_PAGED efi-app-ia32 is on your BFD target list, so by logical inverse of your statement, we do have business trying to support it. However I will concur that until there is sufficent demand (and I agree this is very hard to measure), getting Gentoo/Cygwin added to the tree probably won't happen. -- Robin Hugh Johnson E-Mail : [EMAIL PROTECTED] Home Page : http://www.orbis-terrarum.net/?l=people.robbat2 ICQ# : 30269588 or 41961639 GnuPG FP : 11AC BA4F 4778 E3F6 E4ED F38E B27B 944E 3488 4E85
