Support for ELF format files has been worked on by Mark Eichin of

Cygnus Solutions (original, incomplete implementation), Pete

Hoogenboom at the University of Utah (HPPA mainly), Michael Meissner

of the Open Software Foundation (i386 mainly), and Ken Raeburn of

Cygnus Solutions (sparc, initial 64-bit support).

Several engineers at Cygnus Solutions have also provided many small

bug fixes and configuration enhancements.

The initial Alpha support was contributed by Carnegie-Mellon

University. Additional work was done by Ken Raeburn of Cygnus

Solutions. Richard Henderson then rewrote much of the Alpha support.

Ian Dall updated the support code for the National Semiconductor 32000

series, and added support for Mach 3 and NetBSD running on the PC532.

Klaus Kaempf ported the assembler and the binutils to openVMS/Alpha.

Steve Haworth contributed the support for the Texas Instruction c30

(tms320c30).

H.J. Lu has contributed many patches and much testing.

Alan Modra reworked much of the i386 backend, improving the error

checking, updating the code, and improving the 16 bit support, using

patches from the work of Martynas Kunigelis and H.J. Lu.

Many others have contributed large or small bugfixes and enhancements. If

you've contributed significant work and are not mentioned on this list, and
