I've merged (and removed) the roland/implicit-ptr branch with the
DW_OP_GNU_implicit_pointer support, which has now gone into gcc and
binutils too (so the opcode and format is firm for the future).

I've done some test builds and I think everything is ready to go for the
0.149 release.  We need it by the weekend at the latest, so I can get
it through Fedora processes before the F14 deadline on Tuesday.

Here's what will be in the Fedora rpm %changelog:

- Update to 0.149
  - libdw: Decode new DW_OP_GNU_implicit_pointer operation;
       	   new function dwarf_getlocation_implicit_pointer.
  - libdwfl: New function dwfl_dwarf_line.
  - eu-addr2line: New flag -F/--flags to print more DWARF line info details.
  - eu-readelf: better .debug_loc processing (#627729)
  - eu-strings: Fix non-mmap file reading. (#609468)
  - eu-strip: -g recognizes .gdb_index as a debugging section. (#631997)


Thanks,
Roland
