Diff for as.h in gas to compile on hpux


The change is actually neither mips nor hpux specific: notably,
the assert-mask had an odd-format I did not understand:

#define assert(p) ((P) ? 0 : (as_assert (...)))

which meant it evaluated to be 0, or the return of as_assert(),
instead of void.

The hp-ux 9.05 c-compiler did not like one of the uses of this,
which became:

 (blah) ? 0 : as_assert();

 or 0; after optimisation

The following diff against as.h just changes the assert macro
to be an if statement.
