RHBA-2006:0489 - Bug Fix Advisory
Synopsis
binutils bug fix update
Type/Severity
Bug Fix Advisory
Red Hat Insights patch analysis
Identify and remediate systems affected by this advisory.
Topic
Updated binutils packages that fix several bugs and add support for the
signal frame .eh_frame flag and MNI instructions are now available.
Description
Binutils is a collection of utilities used for the creation of executable code.
This updated binutils package correctly handles linking between versioned,
non-versioned, and undefined symbols. Previous versions of binutils either
created an incorrect link or created no link.
Additionally, this update adds assembler support for x86 and 64-bit Merom
New Instructions and for the .cfi_signal_frame directive. The linker now
handles the newly added signal frame flag in .eh_frame sections.
All users of binutils should upgrade to these updated packages, which
resolve these issues.
Solution

errata relevant to your system have been applied. Use Red Hat
