The CRIS port has const char line_separator_chars[] = "@";
Apparently this causes a conflict with the \@ macro invocation number counter,
as evident by building and checking for cris-axis-linux-gnu:
Running x/src/ld/testsuite/ld-elf/elf.exp ...
FAIL: ld-elf/multibss1

with ld.log saying:
x/src/ld/testsuite/ld-elf/multibss1.s: Assembler messages:
x/src/ld/testsuite/ld-elf/multibss1.s:2: Warning: stray `\'
x/src/ld/testsuite/ld-elf/multibss1.s: Assembler messages:
x/src/ld/testsuite/ld-elf/multibss1.s:2: Warning: stray `\'

I guess the simplest and most obvious route would be to make the \ escape any
special meaning of the following char (the line-separatorness of @ for this case
and perhaps similarly for comment_chars; haven't tested if there's a similar
FAIL for ARM where comment_chars contains @).  Note: DLX also has the same
line_separator_chars.
