RE: [patch] Reading coff-pe-read files

["Pierre Muller" <muller@ics.u-strasbg.fr>]

  Should this be transformed so that we can also
correctly cross-read 64-bit PE files
on 32-bit and vice-versa?

  Possibly by defining an extra offset
that would be set to 16 if target is "pe-x86-64" or "pei-x86-64"
and to zero otherwise?
