Yes, and not just ia64 specific.
I suspect that most people using ia64 binutils either use sources.redhat.com
CVS trunk, or one of H.J. Lu's binutils releases (effectively a CVS
snapshot with a few of HJ's patches). HJ's releases provide some
insulation from CVS trunk instability, but will have all the latest fixes.
I'd like to see a 2.12 release branch soon.
