Only problem I know (not very significant) is that as.exe from bnu281b.zip
leaves info about local labels in object files. That causes some bloating
of object file libraries (not significant for executables as You can strip
them). I myself used binutils-2.9.1 to build binaries of gcc-2.95.1 which
now are in DJGPP distribution. However DJGPP port of binutils-2.9.1 is
not released.
