However in gnu.g++.bugs,
tale                 GAS, GLD, GCC and G++       12:03 am  Dec 15, 1989

Asks the OTHER weekly question:

How do I get gcc and g++ to use gas?  I have it installed in
/usr/local/bin/gas.

Patrick.Sanchez@irisa.fr mailed me this hint:
By the way, to use gas you have to put it in the directory where you
put gnu-ld gnu-cpp ... should be ..../lib/

He comments, however:
I managed to compile libg++ using gas (gnu-assembler)...
unfortunately I had to reverse to normal as for some files.

Where is the ``official'' answer documented?  What is it?
