Hello,
With the recent binutils 2.24.90.20141124-1, one lintian test started
failing:

This happens both during packge build (hence the RC level) and also
during the autopkgtest. I confirm that the test works with binutils
2.24.90.2014 still.
This might very well be a regression in binutils itself, or lintian's
invocation of it needs to be adjusted, so please reassign if
appropriate.
I attach the complete build log for reference (but the above is the
essential bit from it).
Thanks for considering,
Martin
