+* Add support for delay importing to dlltool. Use the --output-delaylib <file>
+ switch to create a delay-import library. The resulting app will load the dll
+ as soon as the first function is called. It will link to __delayLoadHelper2()
+ from the static delayimp library, which will import LoadLibraryA and
+ GetProcAddress from kernel32.
+
* Add a new command line option, --insn-width=WIDTH, to objdump to specify
-number of bytes to be displayed on a single line when disassembling
-instructions.
+ number of bytes to be displayed on a single line when disassembling
+ instructions.
* Readelf can now display the relocated contents of a section as a sequence
of bytes via the --relocated-dump=<name|number> command line option.
