Thanks for your suggestion. Unfortunatelly 2.3.2.ds1-12 on ARM and IA64 are still missing. At this point, this problem affected only alpha (i386, ppc, sparc, s390, hppa, mipsel, mips, m68k are ok). > If it's the same bug it hasn't been fixed yet but I had a potential > patch from Alan: I checked the latest debian binutils with this patch. The result is quite positive.
