* elf32-i386.c: Add comment re linker function names and ordering.
(elf_i386_link_hash_newfunc): Rename to link_hash_newfunc. (elf_i386_grok_prstatus): Move before linker functions. (elf_i386_grok_psinfo): Likewise. (elf_i386_fake_sections): Move so that functions are ordered. (elf_i386_reloc_type_class): Likewise. Comment function purpose.
