Package: gputils
Version: 0.13.0-1
Severity: important
Tags: patch
'gplink' fails to properly check certain PC-relative instructions are properly
in range. It checks address against a mask which fails to account for the
sign bit. The result is code which can be very difficult to debug on a PIC.
I believe the attached patch corrects the problem.
