This affects the .version directive on ELF targets. Below is a test case; the
objdump output shows the namesz field (at the beginning) with the value 8;
it should be 6.
$ cat test.s
.version "stuff"
$ as test.
While the name field of an ELF note is padded to a 4-byte boundary,
the ELF gABI says that "Such padding is not included in namesz."

The code in obj_elf_version in obj-elf.c does include the padding in
namesz.

Hi Megha,
I have been using the intel compiler on a woodcrest machine .
I am sorry but we only support the GNU binutils on this list. For
problems with Intel's compiler you really ought to contact Intel.
ld: ./test.o: relocation R_X86_64_PC32 against `__intel_new_proc_init'
can not be use
