+* The dlltool program now accepts --deterministic-libraries and
+ --non-deterministic-libraries as command line options to control whether or
+ not it generates deterministic output libraries. If neither of these options
+ are used the default is whatever was set when the binutils were configured.

Changes in 2.39:
