Hi,

looking through the mailing list archive, it becomes clear that the mentioned "tools/gdb/astest.c" posed (in my view unnecessary) problems for some U-Boot newcomers that stopped them from compiling the main U-Boot code.

My question therefore is, does anyone still use this code or has it been obsoleted by binutils?

Looking through the code it seems like it dumps ELF file infos for the hard-coded "elf32-powerpc" BFD target so it is of limited use only to the newly supported architectures anyway.

If anyone wants to keep the file then please speak up, otherwise I'd like to ask Wolfgang to remove it so there is one less obstacle for new users of U-Boot.

Thanks Detlev
