The scan-assembler-not should skip strings inside of .ident directives. I have
a branch that I use for power7 development, power7-meissner. In that branch, I
set the REVISION file to indicate that this is a branch. Currently it is set
to:
[ibm/power7-meissner, mainline revision 152572]
This revision string gets put in the .ident section, which causes the test
gcc.dg/builtins-58.c to fail, because it has the directive:
/* scan-assembler-not pow */
It is a minor thing, but I'm sure somebody else will trigger it eventually.
