Nick,
Thanks for your help. I'm having a bit better luck now. However, I did run
into a case where I was getting a segfault in coff_find_nearest_line in
coffgen.c. It looks like in some cases sec_data could fall through to the
end of the function without getting initialized. Initializing sec_data to
NULL seemed to take care of this problem.
