 Howdy everybody,

     Well, file-4.23 hasn't been around for a while on the astron ftp
 server, and the download link is broke cause of that.

 The current location to download file has 4.24 and 4.25.  We can either
 change to another download location, or just
 upgrade file to 4.24 or 4.25.

 The ChangeLog in 4.25 shows the following chances since 4.23 (bottom up):

         * src/readelf.c (donote):
           ELF core file command name/line bug fixes and enhancements:

           Try larger offsets first to avoid false matches
           from earlier data that happen to look like strings;
           this primarily affected SunOS 5.x 32-bit Intel core files.

           Add support for command line (instead of just short name)
           for SunOS 5.x.

           Add information about NT_PSINFO for SunOS 5.x.

           Only trim whitespace from end of command line.
