-This fixes problems like
-{standard input}: Assembler messages:
-{standard input}:1: Error: Unrecognized opcode: `dssall' 
-which show up in binutils-2.15 when building the Linux kernel,
-or possibly failed compilations when building setjmp/longjmp in glibc.
-
-An alternative fix would be to pass -many to the assembler.
-A patch to do that for glibc is at
-wget 'http://sources.redhat.com/cgi-bin/get-raw-msg?listname=libc-alpha&date=2004-05&msgid=40B36E8C.9030609%40us.ibm.com'
-Yet another, better, fix would be for gcc to generate assembly
-that told the assembler which processor type to use.
-Presumably the Linux kernel sources would need a fix, too.
-Probably better to just fix binutils to accept sources that it used to.
