Committed. The comment now says:
/* These need an extra layer of macro just to work around a
bug in the assembler's parser when an operand starts with
a {...}. http://sourceware.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=15647
tracks that bug; it was not fixed as of binutils-2.23.2. */
The fix is waiting for a binutils maintainer's review. I expect it will be
in 2.24 and in 2.23.3 if there is ever a 2.23.3, but it's not resolved yet.
Thanks,
Roland
