Conditionalize manual to maintain Cygnus, Hitachi versions in parallel.
(Texinfo conditionals are stable enough to permit this, at last!)
NOTE: @ignore'd passages from earlier versions DELETED; use CVS history
to retrieve if wanted.
gen-doc.texi, h8-doc.texi: manual configuration definitions.
Makefile.in: link config defn (`gen' by default) to configdoc.texi, included
by ld.texinfo

default. (Q_enter_file_symbos): Indirect symbols now are known by
their section, not a special symbol flag.

bfd_com_section, put in a section of the same name, rather than

* ldmain.c (subfile_wanted_p): If we already have a common
definition of a symbol, don't necessarily pull in an object file
that provides a non-common definition.

ldwrite.c (copy_and_relocate): copy the contents of any section
which has contents, not just sections which are loaded (for shared
libraries).
