+ aren't used.
+
+ * all: white space changes.
+ " -> " becomes "->"
+ "foo [" becomes "foo["

+
+Mon Feb 24 03:27:00 1992 Eric Youngdale (youngdale at v6550c.nrl.navy.mil)
+
+ * config.sub: Added vms as a target system. (So people do not
+ have to try to figure out that "vax-dec-vms" would work).
+
+ * configure.in: Added vms as a target os, and object file format.
+ (Useless on a vms system, but this is for people who want to
+ cross assemble).
+
+ * config-gas.com: New file. Script for VMS systems to set up the
+ configuration to build gas for VMS, and create config.status.
+
+ * make-gas.com: Redone to work with the bfd-gas scheme.
+
+ * as.c: Add const modifier to version_string.
+
+ * atof-vax.c: Remove redundant include of flonum.h. (This is also
+ included via as.h).
+
+ * expr.c: Add "const" modifier to hex_value.
+
+ * read.c: Add "const" modifier to line_comment_chars, and
+ line_separator_chars. Make use of the -1 switch for backward
+ compatibility with gcc 1.nn.
+ (s_ignore): remove redundant declaration of is_end_of_line.
+
+ * symbols.c: Finish conversion to S_* macros in the VMS only
+ parts of the program. Add "const" modifier to
+ md_[long,short]_jump_size. Remove declaration of const_flag
+ (which will be declared in obj-vms.h).
+
+ * write.c: Add "const" modifier to md_[long,short]_jump_size.
+ Fix arguments to VMS_write_object_file.
+
+ * obj-vms.h: New file (sort of). Mostly canibalized from other
+ files, using:
+
+ - objrecdef.h: Removed structure definition that we do not use,
+ and removed dollar signs from identifiers, since Unix System 5
+ does not like them.
+
+ - obj-aout.h: Took S_*, some H_* macros, and a number of
+ symbol definitions.
+
+ - a.out.hp.h: Took nlist structure. We do not really use this
+ per se, but it is easiest to let gas think that we do. When we
+ write the object file, we just pick out the parts that we need.
+
+ - stab.h: Just included it, since on non VMS and non a.out systems
+ we have no guarantee of having it. (Define N_* symbols).
+
+ *obj-vms.c: Renamed from vms.c. Did the following:
+
+ - Reworked to use the S_* macros.
+
+ - Add "const" modifier to version_string.
+
+ - Added global[ref,def,value] support
+
+ - (VMS_Store_PIC_Symbol_Reference):fix a bug with static constants.
+
+ - Remove a few redunant includes - all are now included through as.h.
+
+ - (obj_crawl_symbol_chain): Clean up (a lot), and remove non-VMS
+ code. Add definition for obj_read_begin_hook.
+
+ - Borrow the stab[s,d,n] routines from obj-aout.c.
+
+ - Borrow the seg_N_TYPE and N_TYPE_seg arrays from aout.c
+
+ - Use <fab.h>,<rab.h> and <xab.h> instead of <vms/fabdef.h>
+ <vms/rabdef.h> and <vms/xabdef.h>, for more consistent results.
+ (Some peoples <vms/*.h> files are different than others).
+
+ - Merged vms-dbg.c into obj-vms.c. Modified to use
+ the S_* macros. Added code to remove the psect hack from
+ variable names before writing them to the debugger records.
+
+
+
+ The following patches make cross assembly possible.
+
+ * as.c, read.c, symbols.c, write.c: Change "ifdef VMS" to
+ "ifdef OBJ_VMS".
+
+ * vms.c:
+
+ - Wrap the #include of some VMS system dependent headers
+ with "ifdef VMS".
+
+ - (get_VMS_time_on_unix): Add new routine. Generates current
+ time in VMS format to be written into object file.
+
+ - (Write_VMS_MHD_Records): Use get_VMS_time_on_unix if we are not
+ running on a VMS system.
+
+ - (Flush_VMS_Object_Record_Buffer): Add code to write correct
+ record format when running on a non-VMS system.
+
+ - (Create_VMS_Object_File): Use different mode if running under
+ unix.
+
+ - (VMS_TBT_Source_File): If we are not running on a VMS system,
+ write a source file record for the debugger that looks reasonable.
+
+Mon Feb 24 02:06:00 1992 K. Richard Pixley (rich@cygnus.com)
+
+ * Makefile.in: remove $(srcdir)/../include from INCLUDES. It
+ isn't needed.
+
+ * README: updated with current state.
+
+ * read.c (stringer): read arbitrary expressions between the commas
+ and treat them as ".byte" values. At least some i860 assembler
+ does this so now we do too. Also white space throughout.
+
+ * expr.c, expr.h, frags.c, symbols.c, write.c: white space only.
+
+Mon Feb 24 01:45:40 1992 K. Richard Pixley (rich@cygnus.com)
+
+ * config/te-sequent.h, config/tc-ns32k.h, config/tc-ns32k.c:
+ SEQUENT_COMPATIBILITY -> TE_SEQUENT.
+
+ * config/obj-aout.c: if OLD_GAS and i386, then screw up the magic
+ number.
+
+ * config/obj-bout.c: do not include aout/stab_gnu.h if NO_LISTING.
+
+ * config/obj-bout.h: added enum reloc_type.
+
+ * config/tc-i386.c: on OLD_GAS, .align is power of two, rather
+ than bytes.
+
+ * config/tc-i386.h: on OLD_GAS, the filler byte should be zero
+ rather than NOOP.
+
+ * config/tc-i860.c: relocs are 12bytes on this target. Also white
+ space.
+
+ * config/tc-m68kmote.c: removed. Not ready yet.
+
+ * config/a.out.gnu.h, config/tc-a29k.c, config/tc-m68k.c,
+ config/tc-ns32k.c: white space only.
+
+ * config/tc-a29k.h, config/tc-i860.h, config/tc-i960.h,
+ config/tc-m68k.h, config/tc-ns32k.h, config/tc-sparc.h,
+ config/tc-vax.h: NO_LISTING
+
+ * config/tc-m68k.h, config/tc-i860.h, config/tc-vax.h:
+ REVERSE_SORT_RELOCS if OLD_GAS.
+
+ * config/mt-m68k: removed. not needed.
+
+Fri Feb 21 06:22:15 1992 K. Richard Pixley (rich@rtl.cygnus.com)
+
+ * config/obj-aout.c: do not include stab.gnu.h if NO_LISTING.
+
+ * config/tc-i860.c, config/a.out.gnu.h: move i860 relocs to a proper place.
+
+ * config/a.out.h: removed.
+
+Fri Feb 21 06:21:07 1992 K. Richard Pixley (rich@rtl.cygnus.com)
+
+ * Makefile.in: put header files before C source for TAGS; remove
+ references to non-existent syscalls.h.
+
+ * read.c, write.c subsegs.c: back out the .bss changes.
+
+Fri Feb 21 02:17:22 1992 Minh Tran-Le (TRANLE@INTELLICORP.COM)
+
+ * config/tc-i386.c: config/tc-i386.c: added handling of the
+ following opcodes: i/o opcodes - inb, inw, outb and outw.
+ string manipulation with att syntax - scmp, slod, smov, ssca,
+ ssto.
+
+Fri Feb 21 01:53:50 1992 Minh Tran-Le (TRANLE@INTELLICORP.COM)
+
+ * config/obj-coff.c: (for aix386) Moved the symbols .text, .data
+ and .bss to just after .file .
+
+ In obj_crawl_symbol_chain() where it tries to put the external
+ symbols apart, with the condition:
+ (!S_IS_DEFINED(symbolP) &&
+ !S_IS_DEBUG(symbolP) &&
+ !SF_GET_STATICS(symbolP))
+ it was moving too many symbols out. So I switch it back to the
+ condition:
+ (S_GET_STORAGE_CLASS(symbolP) == C_EXT && !SF_GET_FUNCTION(symbolP))
+
+ In obj_emit_relocations() added the conditional on KEEP_RELOC_INFO
+ so that we don't use the F_RELFLG which make the linker complain
+ that somebody has stripped the relocation info.
+
+ Also, the AIX ld program require that the relocation table
+ is sorted by r_vaddr like the standard ATT assembler does.
+
+ [he also changed the sizeof(struct ...)'s into the coff
+ style FOOSZ macros. I'm not sure this is right, but I can't
+ remember why. xoxorich.]
+
+Fri Feb 21 01:08:48 1992 Minh Tran-Le (TRANLE@INTELLICORP.COM)
+
+ * symbols.c (local_label_name): symbols now start with ^A.
+
+ * read.c, subsegs.c, write.c obj-coff.c: added handling of
+ `.bss` pseudo op for unitialized data. The new gcc (1.37.9x)
+ generate these sections. .align: will use NOP_OPCODE or 0
+ for padding. This is just for being nice to the
+ disassembler.
+
+ * expr.c (operand): changed to generate local label "\001L0"
+ starting with a ^A so that it is recognized as a local label.
+
+ * as.c (perform_an_assembly_pass): zero bss_fix_root, too.
+
+Fri Feb 21 01:08:48 1992 K. Richard Pixley (rich@cygnus.com)
+
+ * Makefile.in, configure.in, doc: use the doc. Build it, install
+ it, clean it, etc.
+
+Tue Feb 18 02:21:25 1992 K. Richard Pixley (rich at cygnus.com)
+
+ * read.c: white space and comments only.
+
+ * configure.in: use the new atof-ns32.c for ns32k.
+
+ * write.c: comment change only.
+
+Tue Feb 18 02:11:10 1992 K. Richard Pixley (rich at cygnus.com)
+
+ * config/tc-m88k.[hc]: pulled in from hack's unfinished work. These
+ aren't yet integrated.
+
+ * config/tc-i860.[hc]: blew off the dust. Something must still be
+ done about conflicting relocation types.
+
+ * config/tc-ns32k.c: Replaced previous tc_aout_fix_to_chars stub
+ with the real thing.
+
+ * config/tc-i960.c, tc-sparc.c: white space and comments only.
+
+ * config/tc-a29k.h: delete duplicate macro definition.
+
+ * new file config/atof-ns32k.c copied from hack's last unreleased
+ gas.
+
+Mon Feb 17 07:51:06 1992 K. Richard Pixley (rich at cygnus.com)
+
+ * config/tc-ns32k.c: actually make tc_aout_fix_to_chars work
+ rather than abort.
+
+ * nearly everything. flush ChangeLog, package as gas-1.92.1.
+ ChangeLog's prior to this are sketchy at best. I have logs.
+ They just aren't ChangeLogs.
