ELBA-2024-12186 - gcc-toolset-11-binutils bug fix update

Type:	BUG
Severity:	NA
Release Date:	2024-02-29

Description

[2.36.1-4.0.2]
- Refresh CTF patches from upstream (2.42).
- Fix more cases where operations on child dicts could leave errors on
the parent, this time associated with CTF dict creation (upstream PR
libctf/30985).
- Fix the cu-mapped link feature (not exposed by GNU ld) to use only
the last mapping provided for a given translation unit, rather than a
random mix of first and last
- Fix a couple of tiny missing bits in bfd/, fixing an unlikely CTF strtab
corruption
- Fix dependencies of libctf.so and libctf-nobfd.so to cite the libraries
the code actually depends on. (Fixes observed link problems with
libctf-nobfd.so needing extra libraries on the link line versus upstream:
libctf.so changes done purely for consistency.)
