Wouldn't it be better to fix the sources that use this confusing form of macro invocation. Reading this as a programmer it looks to me like you are trying to use an opcode called "foo.l" and not a macro called "foo" whose first argument is ".l". ie wouldn't it be clearer to have: foo .l, %d0, %d1 Cheers Nick -- http://sourceware.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=2848 ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug, or are watching someone who is. _______________________________________________ bug-binutils mailing list bug-binutils@gnu.org http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/bug-binutils
