    Re: Add support for a .base64 pseudo-op to gas
    
    Fixes a failure on rx-elf where the standard data section isn't .data.
    run_dump_test has machinery to translate .data in both options and
    expected results for objdump, but not for readelf -x.
    
            PR 31964
            * testsuite/gas/all/base64.d: Dump .data with objdump.  Run on
            all targets.
