.xword crashes gas on sparc

[Alexandre Oliva]

This is the first of a series of problem reports I'm going to post.  I
intend to try to fix them, but I wouldn't mind if someone gets to it
first :-)

egcs is now multilibbed 32/64 on Solaris7/sparc, and the -m64 version
fails to compile _trampoline.o for libgcc.  Here's a reduced testcase,
that presents the same problem:

echo '.xword foo' | /n/gnu/bin/as -
{standard input}: Assembler messages:
{standard input}:1: Fatal error: {standard input}:1: bad return from bfd_install_relocation
