Alan Modra cd5b2babea Copying symbol type in ld script assignments
There is a call to update_definedness between code that evaluates an
assignment expression value and code that transfers symbol
attributes.  When script assignment expressions contain DEFINED, that
can mean the wrong symbol type is copied.  This patch tracks symbols
read during expression evaluation, rather than examining the
expression and re-evaluating conditionals.  Not only does this
simplify the code, it also means ld can now copy symbol types in more
complex expressions.

An unfortunate side effect of copying symbol type for more complex
expressions affects mmix, which uses
 PROVIDE (Main = DEFINED (Main) ? Main : (DEFINED (_start) ? _start : _start.));
in a default script.  So now _start or _start. symbol type may be
copied, losing the function type specially set up for Main.  This can
be avoided by making bfd_copy_link_hash_symbol_type do nothing for
mmix.

bfd/
	* elf64-mmix.c (bfd_elf64_bfd_copy_link_hash_symbol_type): Define.
ld/
	* ldexp.h (struct ldexp_control): Add "assign_src".
	* ldexp.c (fold_trinary): Save and restore assign_src around
	condition evaluation.
	(fold_name <NAME>): Set expld.assign_src.
	(try_copy_symbol_type): Delete.
	(exp_fold_tree_1): Set symbol type using expld.assign_src.

README

		   README for GNU development tools

This directory contains various GNU compilers, assemblers, linkers, 
debuggers, etc., plus their support routines, definitions, and documentation.

If you are receiving this as part of a GDB release, see the file gdb/README.
If with a binutils release, see binutils/README;  if with a libg++ release,
see libg++/README, etc.  That'll give you info about this
package -- supported targets, how to use it, how to report bugs, etc.

It is now possible to automatically configure and build a variety of
tools with one command.  To build all of the tools contained herein,
run the ``configure'' script here, e.g.:

	./configure 
	make

To install them (by default in /usr/local/bin, /usr/local/lib, etc),
then do:
	make install

(If the configure script can't determine your type of computer, give it
the name as an argument, for instance ``./configure sun4''.  You can
use the script ``config.sub'' to test whether a name is recognized; if
it is, config.sub translates it to a triplet specifying CPU, vendor,
and OS.)

If you have more than one compiler on your system, it is often best to
explicitly set CC in the environment before running configure, and to
also set CC when running make.  For example (assuming sh/bash/ksh):

	CC=gcc ./configure
	make

A similar example using csh:

	setenv CC gcc
	./configure
	make

Much of the code and documentation enclosed is copyright by
the Free Software Foundation, Inc.  See the file COPYING or
COPYING.LIB in the various directories, for a description of the
GNU General Public License terms under which you can copy the files.

REPORTING BUGS: Again, see gdb/README, binutils/README, etc., for info
on where and how to report problems.
