-: This is announcement of DJGPP port of binutils-2.12.1.

Impressive size difference; I'm always
glad to recover a few MB of disk space :-/

% djzip --size 2.11.2-r1/bnu2112b.zip
	2.11.2-r1/bnu2112b.zip:   6088008                   65 files

% djzip --size 2.12.1/bnu2121b.zip
	2.12.1/bnu2121b.zip:   3794728                   73 files

I wondered if this might be due to stripped executables,
but `file' doesn't want to answer that question for me (!):

% file bin-*/objdump.exe
bin-2121/objdump.exe:    DOS executable (EXE)
bin-2112/objdump.exe:    DOS executable (EXE)
