However, the COFF version has a problem that isn't obvious to me. Here
is a disassembly of the same .s file generated with the native COFF=20
assembler and with this assembler in COFF mode.
It looks to me like you need to hack md_apply_fix3 in tc-i386.c. In
general, anything that does an #ifdef OBJ_ELF or #ifdef OBJ_COFF will
have to be hacked.
In fact, I'm not certain that the BFD_ASSEMBLER version of the i386
COFF assembler works correctly. You need to make sure that if you
configure with --target i386-coff --enable-bfd-assembler the resulting
code works.
By the way, for some reason your patch came in scrambled, with lots of
=20 strings scattered around. I can never remember how to get rid of
those.
Ian
