1. Descriptions of Revision
1.1 Functions Introduced to the Optimizing Linkage Editor
    The following two options have been introduced to the optimizing 
    linkage editor:
    (1) RTs_file: Outputs information files for the specified emulators.
    (2) CRc: Calculates the value of CRC (Cyclic Redundancy Check) of the 
             specified range and stores it at the specified address in 
             memory.

1.2 Problems Fixed
    The problems listed below have been resolved.
1.2.1 In the Compiler
    (1) The seven problems reported in RENESAS TOOL NEWS 
        Document No. 080623/tn1, published in June 23, 2008:
        - With declaring a structure, a union, or their member variables 
          to be accessed on keyword __evenaccess (H8C-077)
        - With using library functions scanf(), fscanf(), and sscanf() 
          (H8C-078)
        - With using the same variable more than once in an expression 
          (H8C-079)
        - With accessing members of a structure or union with 
          the alignment number of 1 (H8C-080)
        - With coding multi-loops with the Vacant Loop Elimination 
          option del_vacant_loop=1 selected (H8C-081)
        - With putting the same statement in more than one block (H8C-082)
        - With assigning the return value of a function to a member 
          variable of a structure, union, or class (H8C-083)
        For details of these, see the Web page at 
           http://tool-support.renesas.com/eng/toolnews/080623/tn1.htm

    (2) The problem that the error message No. L2310(E) is dispatched 
        if CPU option 300 or 300L is selected, and object files 
        containing mathematical functions are linked

    (3) The problem that the error message No. C3304(F), saying "Cannot 
        delete internal file," is dispatched during compilation

    (4) The problem that if '/' is used as the delimiter of directories, 
        incorrect debug information is provided, disabling the system 
        from being debugged

    (5) The problem that the error message No. L2310(E) is dispatched 
        if objects files are linked which contain functions to be expanded 
        inline with the __indirect_ex option

1.2.2 In the Assembler
      The two problems reported in RENESAS TOOL NEWS 
      Document No. 080623/tn1, published in June 23, 2008:
      - With destination addresses of the jmp instruction (H8A-0001)
      - With placing labels in an absolute section (H8A-0002)

      - With calling an assembler routine with the number of arguments-
        storing registers being declared to be 3 (LNK-0001)
      - With referencing the initial value of a variable with 
        the Short Absolute Addressing Mode option selected (LNK-0002)
      - With using the Same Code Unification option (LNK-0003)
