The patch
2001-03-27 Nick Papadonis <nick@coelacanth.com>
* read.c (equals): (for COFF) default symbols to being local.
caused testsuite/gas/macros/test1.exp to fail on COFF. test1.s has
.macro m arg1 arg2
.globl \arg1
\arg1 = \arg2
.endm
m s1,1
m s2,2
It used to be global. Now it is local. Nick, did you
# make check
work on your COFF target?
