regressions in the ld testsuite on amd64

[Matthias Klose]

Binary package hint: binutils

seen on feisty and gutsy:

just rebuilding binutils from feisty on feisty amd64 shows regressions, so some change after 20070103 in feisty does cause these. Seen with the current binutils in gutsy as well. The corresponding packages build ok in debian unstable, as does the ubuntu package in debian unstable.

Test results, compared with installed binutils:

Please could someone mark this as Won't Fix for Feisty?

[Hew (hew)]

Ubuntu Feisty Fawn is no longer supported, so a SRU will not be issued for this release. Marking Feisty as Won't Fix.
