	Hi folks,

	I have modified gas to generate COFF object files instead of
a.out or encapsulated COFF.
	This is *not* the already existing patch file available on osu.

	The philosophy is also quite different. It is not isolated
and triggered at the end of the assembly. The gas code has been modified
to remove all the format dependent (a.out or COFF) information. The
a.out or COFF specifics have been isolated in #ifdef.
	The other main difference is that it understands the .def/.ln debug
directives instead of the .stabs. This way the generated objects are 100%
compatibles with the standard tools (sdb & ld & dump).
	
	I have compiled gcc-1.37.1, gdb-3.6, gas-1.36, emacs-18.55, and
a System V.3.2 kernel with it and all of them work fine since about
1 month.

	If there is enough interest I'll post the patches. Otherwise I
will mail them when required.
