Hi I looked into the archives and couldn't find anything about it. So I don't know if this is intentional or a regression.
as 2.16.1 happily compiled this: as.exe --defsym PPC603=1 ... file: .set PPC603, 1 # or PPC603 = 1 ... while as 2.17 brings an error: file: Assembler messages: file:32: Error: symbol `PPC603' is already defined The docs states: "You may .set a symbol many times in the same assembly." http://sourceware.org/binutils/docs-2.17/as/Set.html#Set So know is that a bug? Thanks bye Fabi _______________________________________________ bug-binutils mailing list bug-binutils@gnu.org http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/bug-binutils
