Changelog extract

* Fix regex for ia64 'Bank nn' message.
* Strip leading '+' from lines.

Some people have reported problems building ksymoops, with unresolved
references in libbfd (htab_create, htab_find_slot_with_hash). Try
http://www.cs.helsinki.fi/linux/linux-kernel/2002-13/0196.html first,
if that does not work, contact the binutils maintainers. This is not a
ksymoops problem, ksymoops only uses libbfd. Any unresolved references
from libbfd are a binutils problem.
