Description sepotvin 2001-05-30 20:10:01 UTC 
gensetdefs.pl uses the '@' character in the '.type' assembler directive it creates. Unfortunately, the '@' character is the comment character for ARM assemblers.

Fix: Apply the following patch to gensetdefs.pl that changes the '@' character to the '%' character. This works for i386 and ARM. It is not tested on alpha and ia64 platforms.
How-To-Repeat: Try to compile a file generated by gensetdefs.pl with the arm-elf-gcc295 port.
