Gas usage query

Subject: Gas usage query
Authentication-results: sourceware.org; auth=none

I want to define an alias for an immediate value.  So I'm looking for something
similar to the c pre-processor's #define  - but I can't find a suitable directive
in the gas manual.

.set, .equiv and friends don't do the job because they actually define symbols.
.macro doesn't do the job either since it actually emits code.

What I want is something like

	.define foo #24
	
         ;; Load the D6 register with 24
	ld d6, foo


Is there a way to to this?
