Oh oh, no need. I know what is going on. This is a well-documented bug in old versions of gas.
You'll find notes to this effect throughout lots of old GMP assembly files, along with workarounds. Another reason to use yasm for *everything*. Anyhow, this ought not affect our release. Anyone making a fat binary should use a modern system, kernel, binutils, compiler, etc for best performance. But this bug will get fixed when we fix the Sun as bug. I'll update the ticket.
