hi folks.
when building the netbsd kernel with the latest gas, i'm noticing that
an expression previously allowed is no longer valid. specifically, the
/ operator seems to generate errors:
fish-dances ~> /usr/local/bin/as -v
GNU assembler version 2.11.90 (i386-unknown-netbsdelf1.5W) using BFD version 2.11.90
movb (0 / 8), %cl
{standard input}: Assembler messages:
{standard input}:1: Error: unbalanced parenthesis in operand 1.
compared to the native compiler:
fish-dances ~> /usr/bin/as -v
GNU assembler version 2.9.1 (i386--netbsd), using BFD version 2.9.1
movb (0 / 8), %cl
i'm told the same problem was found in the NetBSD/x86_64 port.
