I've been wondering about these errors too as I have never come across
them myself. So I have no idea what's causing them and I can't really
help other than maybe running `git bisect' on binutils sometime. Or is
there a way to get the version of GAS involved? -- `as --version' will do.
I could see if I could build it and reproduce the problem to see what's
causing it. Also seeing the offending .s file could help too, i.e.
knowing what the context is here.
