objcopy buffer overflow
"tocopy" in this code was an int, which when the size to be copied was larger than MAXINT could result in tocopy being negative. A negative value of course is less than BUFSIZE, but when converted to bfd_size_type is extremely large. PR 995 * objcopy.c (copy_unknown_object): Correct calculation of "tocopy". Use better variable types.
