(do_align): Take new len parameter. Change all callers. Pass it
to md_do_align.
(s_align_bytes): Arg now indicates the length of the fill pattern.
(s_align_ptwo): Likewise.
* config/obj-coff.c (write_object_file): Pass length to
md_do_align.
* config/tc-i386.h (md_do_align): Take new len parameter.
* config/tc-m88k.h (md_do_align): Likewise.
* config/tc-m88k.c (m88k_do_align): Likewise.
* config/tc-sh.h (md_do_align): Likewise.
* config/tc-sh.c (sh_do_align): Likewise.
* doc/as.texinfo: Document new pseudo-ops.
* config/obj-coff.c (fixup_mdeps): Divide offset by fr_var, as is
done in cvt_frag_to_fill.
PR 8974.
* as.c (listing_filename): New static variable.
(show_usage): Mention -a=file.
(parse_args): Support = option of -a to set name of listing file.
(main): Pass listing_filename to listing_print.
* listing.c (list_file): New static variable.
(various): Replace printf with fprintf to list_file.
(listing_print): If name argument is not NULL, open it as
list_file.
* doc/as.texinfo, doc/as.1: Document -a=file.

from Bryan Ford <baford@schirf.cs.utah.edu>:
* read.c (potable): Added balign and p2align, for aligning by bytes or powers
of two independent of what ".align" does for a given target.
* doc/as.texinfo: Document them.
(2) move explanation of new MIPS options from summary section to MIPS-options
section; add summaries in appropriate spots.
(3) usual minor rephrasing in passing.
This version formats cleanly under makeinfo, and in Cygnus format.
Default FSF format works without error, but tables of machine
instructions for some machines have stupid page boundaries (FSF
version uses larger page size).
(2) leading comments for future updates, about places to check for new
directives
(3) doc for new portable ".string" directive
(4) minor updates to dates etc.
not apocryphal.
apoc-ry-phal \-fel\ adj
(1590)
1 often cap: of or resembling the Apocrypha
2: of doubtful authenticity: SPURIOUS
syn see FICTITIOUS
pro-ver-bi-al \pre-'ver-be^--el\ adj
(1548)
1: of, relating to, or resembling a proverb
2: that has become a proverb or byword: commonly spoken of
(2) remove smallbook/cropmarks comments; switching to smallbook is now
automatic w/house style
(3) use `|' alternative convention for SPARC dependent options.
UnGNUish, but the convention is used for other machines in this book.
(4) cease eliding paragraph about purpose of assembler in Hitachi configuration
(5) use SPECIAL-SYMS switch more consistently
(6) formatting improvements from Q1 release
(7) use explicit @page instead of @group in long examples listing
instruction-set summaries (because some new texinfo bug leads to
double-spacing with @group in this context)
(8) rearrange H8/500 instruction-set summary into two cols
(9) include GPL from texinfo directory rather than duplicating here
a) cleanups to node structure for Info file
b) .lflags (ignored) doc restored (was covered previously in
single par on .list-related directives ignored).
c) fill in page size defaults (.psize)
d) move text on H8/300 size suffixes to after opcode table, for
better page breaks
e) @alphaenumerate->@enumerate a in GPL
(2) Doc -a, -al, -as, options to enable listings and listing control
directives; removed FIXME comments re verifying listing counter use;
advanced titlepage date to Jan 92.
