Hi Richard,
: Can we avoid references to sections such as .rdata? a.out doesn't
: have these sections which makes the test unsuitable for targets
: based on those platforms. For these tests, what is wrong with just
: pushing the data into the text segment?
Nothing at all. In fact there is no need for any data in the test
file at all, so I have eliminated the entire ".section .rdata" stuff at
the beginning of the file and changed the .word to reference an
undefined, external symbol (that does not start with a period).
Cheers
Nick
