binutils-beta-1.94 bugs

	Hi,

I'd like to bring to your attention a couple of problems with 
binutils-beta-1.94 running in a cross-compile environmemt. 

Here is my configuration:
host: DECstation 5000/Ultrix
target: i386/a.out

My current software:
gcc 2.2.2
binutils-beta-1.94

PROBLEM 1:

The linker does not complain about unresolved references.

SOLUTION:

I was able to track this one down. The problem is the incorrectly
defined endianness of the 386 machine. It's in the definition of the
bfd_target in the aout-target.h file.

PROBLEM 2:

Incremental linking (ld with -i or -r) doesn't seem to work. An object file
produced by linking with -i or -r switch does not retain any relocation
entries.


If the incremental linking problem has an easy fix, I would greatly appreciate
if you could advise me about how to solve it.

Also, when do you expect to have the next release of binutils?

	Thanks in advance for any help,

	Regards,
	Lev.

P.S. I mailed the same message to bothner@cygnus.com
