Unable to build PowerPC AIX targets

[Nick Clifton]

Hi Rainer,

   Building gas for AIX targeted PowerPC ports is currently failing
   because the comment_chars array is now ELF only:

ld: app.o: in function `do_scrub_begin':
gas/app.c:216:(.text+0x55): undefined reference to `comment_chars'

   I assume that there is no special need for the array to only be
   defined for the ELF target, so I found that a patch like the one
   attached solved the problem.  Does this work for you ?

Cheers
   Nick
