    - strings: enabled --all option by default, added --data option
      (by Nick Clifton; addresses numerous CVEs wrt strings(1)).
    Dec. 15, 2010 Dmitry V. Levin 1:2.20.51.0.12-alt3
    - binutils-devel: added Provides/Obsoletes for libbfd-devel, for
      backwards compatibility, because some packages need only header files
      from former libbfd-devel.
    Dec. 14, 2010 Kirill A. Shutemov 1:2.20.51.0.12-alt2
    - Merge all -devel packages into binutils-devel:
      + replace libbfd.so and libopcodes.so with linker script to use static
        libraries for linking external programs;
      + merge with libiberty-devel to avoid cyclical dependences;
      + no Provides/Obsoletes for libbfd-devel-static: no users in Sisyphus;
      + no Provides/Obsoletes for libbfd-devel: have to rebuild users
        anyway;
    - Fix alignment for common symbols in BFD linker plugin (closes: 24754)
