Description Oliver Grawert 2009-07-13 11:22:46 UTC
apparently the gas testsuite was rewritten between .20090622 and 20090704.
building with gcc-4.4 makes the gas/arm/arm.exp test fail in the 64 Bytes
alignment test.

Sorry, this issue is specific to Ubuntu as we added a patch to change the
default alignment to 64 bits.  I tried building tip, it builds at least up to
gas and passes the gas testsuite; with the patch applied the test suite fails as
follows:
...

Using /usr/share/dejagnu/config/unix.exp as generic interface file for target.
Using /home/lool/scratch/binutils/binutils/gas/testsuite/config/default.exp as
