User relevant changes from version 041202 to 060710:
binutils:
- ld is no longer patched to not allow undefined symbols in
objects, as this is now done via gcc-specs.
- ld is no longer patched to not use relocation combination (combreloc),
as the default (using it) seems to generate slightly smaller results and
does not break anything (apparently).
gcc:
- added missing documentation for --relative-path-errors option.
- added --no-undefined to the specs so that we can drop a patch that changed
ld to use this as default.
- provide convenience fixed(ios&) and scientific(ios&) inline functions
- fixed scientific(ios& i) (thanks to John [Beta] Drinkwater)
- Applied several (old, external) patches that enable the support for anonymous
structs and unions in C as well as in C++ (application of this patch has
been sugggested by execom through BeBits-talkback).
