PDP-11 LDA BFD backend for gnu binutils

[Fritz Mueller]

I've been thinking it might be nice to have an LDA BFD backend for gnu binutils, so gas, ld, objdump etc. could deal with LDA's directly without having to use separate conversion utilities.

Before jumping in on that, though, I thought I'd ask here to see if anybody might have already started or done this?  I've noticed several of the folks here also have contributions on some of the binutils lists.

   thanks,
