I see. From some testing, it seems that GNU as treats all of .short, .word, .value and .2byte as aliases, defining 16-bit constants. We currently use .short, and that breaks x86_64 builds using the Sun/Oracle assembler. Does anyone know which of ".word", ".value" and ".2byte" is more portable (.value sounds very unspecific to me)? I'd prefer to use a pseudo op supported by all relevant x86_64 assemblers, and not have to add a configure test for this. I think the relevant assemblers are GNU as (including older versions), Sun/Oracle as, and the assembler used with clang on freebsd. Regards, /Niels -- Niels Möller. PGP-encrypted email is preferred.
