Bug Description

Binary package hint: binutils

Details of the issue, and a patch providing a workaround have been posted to the binutils mailing list here:
http://sourceware.org/ml/binutils/2009-05/msg00297.html

This patch is needed in order for Thumb-2 code built by the tools to work correctly on all Cortex-A8 revisions.

Note that GCC is unaffected.
