not) x86 GNU property notes.
* The MIPS assembler now supports the Loongson EXTensions R2 (EXT2),
the Loongson EXTensions (EXT) instructions, the Loongson Content
Address Memory (CAM) ASE and the Loongson MultiMedia extensions
Instructions (MMI) ASE.
* The addr2line, c++filt, nm and objdump tools now have a default
limit on the maximum amount of recursion that is allowed whilst
demangling strings. This limit can be disabled if necessary.

linker bug report.
