No hurry! We have an `objcopy -I ihex -O binary` user. I noticed the difference (when the difference between sh_address'es does not equal the difference between sh_offset's) while migrating them to use llvm-objcopy. They have switched to a checked-in binary instead as using objcopy does not make their build any better (the original ihex is an opaque binary anyway). I posted the patch because it actually seems to simplify code and may probably address problems of future users.
