DJ, can we have an updated bnu27b.zip with this patch?  I think that the 
current misfeature of `strip' overwriting the stub will lead to subtle 
bugs, especially since Binutils on SimTel where only relinked (as opposed 
to recompiled) with the latest stub, and thus the stub hard-coded inside 
them is the old, pre-v2.01 one.  So if you strip the .exe, you get the 
old stub.
