I strongly believe these should as_fatal errors since they result in
an incorrect object being generated.  When I was updating the VAX gas
for ELF, I changed a lot of uses of as_warn to as_fatal.  This was due
to the fact that a build would seemingly succeed but create non-functional
programs.  If there is a problem in assembling a program, I want gas
to fail so I correct it.
