psp-ar buffer overflow fixed

Post by jimparis »

I added a patch to binutils to fix the buffer overflow bug in psp-ar, which was detected by newer GCCs with _FORTIFY_SOURCE=2.

Now we don't need gcc-4.2 on Ubuntu, and we don't need to build with -O0. The full psptoolchain script works fine on Ubuntu 9.10.

Great work! That bug caught a bunch of folks from the posts seen.
