   You know your COFF, so if you say it is so I'll buy it.

   But let's please get to it. What should happen now? Is a #define needed so a 
   target can select between "historical" and "documented" behavior? And what if 
   any changes should be made to the testsuite?

Is there any reason to choose the documented behaviour rather than the
historical behaviour?  You mentioned DJGPP, but did you mean DJGPP
gas?  That can doubtless be fixed in various ways.  Or did you mean
some other tool?
