I like the idea, but I think that it should be controlled by a new command
line option, which would be off by default.  Would you care to update your 
patch to do this ?  Note - doing so no only involves changing the code, but
also updating the documentation (binutils/doc/binutils.texi), the NEWS file
(binutils/NEWS) and, ideally, adding a binutils test as well
(binutils/testsuite/binutils-all/).

Cheers
  Nick
