Probably there's a misunderstanding. I don't suggest to drop this task forever.
I understand this is required; my point is, maintaining it before we get all
fields generated, is going to be a difficult task, and rather a useless one.
And fields generation is impossible to be included in this MoU: we don't have a
budget for that in scope of this MoU.

So, my idea is, I'd like to postpone complex binutils modifications, generate
the fields for libopid and keep the code there. And only then switch binutils
to use the generated code from libopid. I'm fine with reallocating the budget
to other tasks, not necessarily mine, that's what I was trying to express.
