From: "Jeff (J.) Hayes" <jjhayes@x400gate.bnr.ca>
I have sent this to Chris Hanson as he appeared to be the author
of the hpux mods, and twice as he is given 2 diff addr's in the
ChangeLog file.
hope you don't mind chris.
on to the bug report:
A description of exactly what went wrong.
[...]
/* the issue here is that EXEC_MACHINE_TYPE exposes the_exec.a_machtype
to the compiler which is also undefined.
I was able to follow the "struct exec" typedef in a.out.gnu.h but got lost
in the macros. is there a macro resolving .a_machtyp to one of the
defined fields?
i also noted that EXEC_VERSION on the lines following is only def'd in the
Makefile for Sequent machines - this leads my to believe there should have
been some kind of -DHP9000S200_ID=??? switch to define its value.
*/
so can you help me out?

Fortunately, this bug has occurred before. Here's what's wrong: HP-UX
needs a special a.out.h file, called "a.out.hpux.h", and
"struc-symbol.h" needs to be modified to use it. This code was
mistakenly removed from GAS for the 1.38 release. Here it is:
*** struc-symbol.h.~1~ Fri Jul 6 14:43:12 1990
--- struc-symbol.h Thu Sep 5 19:29:55 1991
