backslashes in quoted symbol names

[Nick Clifton]

Hi Jan,

>>> 2) {powerpc,rs6000}-ibm-aix*, 

Deliberately disabled.  See gas/config/tc-ppc.h:

   /* Strings do not use backslash escapes under COFF.  */
   #ifdef OBJ_COFF
   #define TC_STRING_ESCAPES 0
   #endif

The # character is not a comment starter for this configuration, so the assembler spits out:

   quoted-sym-names.s:17: Error: junk at end of line, first unrecognized character is `#'


> z80-coff 

This is due to the z80_start_line_hook() function, which does not support escaped double quotes.


Cheers
