This is how it now reads:

       /* NOTE: cagney/2003-10-23: The code for "a can_run_code_for b"
          is implemented using BFD's compatible method (a->compatible
          (b) == a -- the lowest common denominator between a and b is
          a).  That method's definition of compatible may not be as you
          expect.  For instance the test "amd64 can run code for i386"
          (or more generally "64-bit ISA can run code for the 32-bit
          ISA").  BFD doesn't normally consider 32-bit and 64-bit
          "compatible" so it doesn't succeed.  */
