When the DWARF address size is 32-bit, but the host machine is 64-bit,
objdump fails to spot base addresses specified in the .debug_ranges and
.debug_loc lists.
As an example, here is the output when dumping an example .debug_ranges
section with the pre-patched objdump:
Contents of the .debug_ranges section:
Offset Begin End
00000000 ffffffff 00000004 (start > end)
00000000 00000000 00000004
00000000 ffffffff 00000008 (start > end)
00000000 00000000 00000004
00000000 <End of list>
And this is what the same section looks like when dumped with the
patched version of objdump:
Contents of the .debug_ranges section:
Offset Begin End
00000000 ffffffff 00000004 (base address)
00000000 00000004 00000008
00000000 ffffffff 00000008 (base address)
00000000 00000008 0000000c
00000000 <End of list>

This commit fixes a few issues in the mechanism for passing information
about ".org" and ".align" directives from the assembler to the linker,
used by the avr target.
In the original commit fdd410ac7a, there
were some mistakes when writing out information about ".align"
directives:
- An align with fill does not write out its information correctly, the
fill data overwrites the alignment data.
- Each alignment directive is recorded at the location where the
previous alignment directive should be recorded, the first alignment
directive is discarded.
In commit 137c83d69f, the data produced by
objdump is not correct:
- It's miss-aligned due to a missing whitespace.
- The fill data for align with fill records is not displayed
correctly.
All of the above issues are addressed in this commit, and the test is
improved to cover these cases.

We can't use the output section size to copy input section since
--interleave will shrink the output section. Instead, we change
bfd_convert_section_contents to return the updated input section
size. When we do that, we don't need to adjust the output section
size to skip gap fills.

In objcopy, copy_object calls copy_section to copy contents of input
section to output section. When --gap-fill= is used, objcopy extends
the size of output sectios to fill gaps between output sections with
gap fills. In this case, we adjust the output section size to skip
gap files to avoid reading beypond the input section buffer before
calling copy_section and restore the output section size after input
sections have been copied.

Original description:
This is the second in a series of patches to make a build with an
in-tree GNU libiconv work as designed.
Currently GDB is the only toolchain component which actually uses an
in-tree libiconv. This patch modifies the common AM_ICONV to use an
in-tree libiconv when present and not already provided by libc.
(GDB's workaround uses an in-tree libiconv even when libc provides
iconv(3); I'm not sure when or why that would be desirable.)

When using options such as --localize-symbol, --globalize-symbol, etc,
along with the --wildcard option, prefixing a symbol name with '!'
should provide non-matching behaviour, as example the following example
is given in the manual:
--wildcard --weaken-symbol !foo --weaken-symbol fo*
which should weaken all symbols matching the pattern 'fo*', but not the
symbol 'foo'.
However, this currently does not work, the current logic will waken all
symbols matching the pattern 'fo*' AND all symbols that are not 'foo'.
The symbol 'foo' is covered by the first condition, and so is weakened,
while, other symbols, for example 'bar' will match the second condition,
and so be weakened.
This patch adjusts the logic so that a pattern prefixed with '!'
specifically DOES NOT apply the relevant change to any matching symbols,
instead of applying the change to all non-matching symbols. So this:
--weaken-symbol !foo
will ensure that the symbol 'foo' is not weakened, but says nothing
about symbols that are not 'foo'. As a result, a pattern prefixed with
'!' now only makes sense when used alongside a more wide ranging
wildcard pattern.
This change should make the wildcard matching feature more useful, with
no overall loss of functionality. The example given in the manual,
weaken all symbols matching 'fo*' except 'foo' can now be achieved, but
so too can more complex examples, such as weaken all symbols matching
'fo*' except 'foo', 'foa', and 'fob', like this:
--wildcard --weaken-symbol !foo \
--weaken-symbol !foa \
--weaken-symbol !fob \
--weaken-symbol fo*
Under the previous scheme, something as symbols as, weaken all symbols
except 'foo' could have been achieved with this:
--weaken-symbol !foo
however, this will no longer work. To achieve the same result under the
new scheme this is now required:
--weaken-symbol !foo --weaken-symbol *
