Thanks, I believe the compilation issue may well be resolved by:
https://lore.kernel.org/lkml/20230311065753.3012826-8-irogers@google.com/
where binutils is made opt-in rather than opt-out.

I was kind of surprised to see no version check ifdef. Is
init_disassemble_info_compat is supported in older binutils?

Thanks,
Ian
