Bug ID: 117342 Summary: .base64 emitted when gas doesn't support it Product: gcc Version: 15.0 Status: UNCONFIRMED Severity: normal Priority: P3 Component: c Assignee: unassigned at gcc dot gnu.org Reporter: dcb314 at hotmail dot com Target Milestone: --- .base64 is a new feature in gas in binutils. I see some new evidence that gcc is emitting .base64 statements into the assembler file *.s. Trouble is, my current version of gas doesn't support it. It looks to me like either a) gcc doesn't check at configure stage that the assembler supports .base64 b) the configure test is wrong.
