[It's a huge list, folks. You know who you are. If you have the
*ability* to do binutils checkins, you're in this group. Just remember
to get approval before checking anything in.]

+ ------------- Obvious Fixes -------------

+Fixes for obvious mistakes do not need approval, and can be checked in
+right away, but the patch should still be sent to the binutils list.
+The definition of obvious is a bit hazy, and if you are not sure, then
+you should seek approval first. Obvious fixes include fixes for
+spelling mistakes, blatantly incorrect code (where the correct code is
+also blatantly obvious), and so on. Obvious fixes should always be
+small, the larger they are, the more likely it is that they contain
+some un-obvious side effect or consequence.
