Hi Nick

While building glibc with latest binutils from CVS, gas reported an
error which was not there before. It is caused by this checkin 

http://sourceware.org/ml/binutils-cvs/2005-10/msg00047.html

Here is a short test case from glibc to demonstrate the problem. This
assembles fine with assembler before this check in.


.globl foo
 foo:
 .long 0
.weak foo
foo = foo

The error is

error "symbol `foo' is already defined"
