Re: [PATCH] objdump: Handle x64 PE+ pdata with leading padding

Did you test the patch for regressions ?  I assume so, but it is worth checking.

There are no regressions on Cygwin x86_64

However, the one test case which actually tests objdump -p wasn't working before on Cygwin. I'm not sure if patch [1/3] to fix that is totally a good idea, or if we should just fix our Tcl/Tk instead.

Also - would it be possible to create a test case for this problem, so that we
can be sure that the fix continues to work ?

Patch [3/3] adds a testcase using the binary which originally gave me this problem, which is 237k (I wasn't able to reduce it to a smaller binary).

I'm not sure if adding that is permitted, or a good idea, or if I should try to create a binary with the same problem from assembly source...
