  Modified:    gnu/usr.bin/as  read.c
  Log:
  Support the ".p2align" directive, which is standard in newer versions
  of binutils.  For all architectures and object file formats,
  ".p2align n" aligns to the next multiple of 2**n.  Thus for FreeBSD,
  it does exactly the same thing as the traditional ".align".
  
  The old ".align" directive has different meanings in different
  object formats, and even in different variants of a.out.  Sometimes
  is aligns to a multiple of n, and other times it aligns to a multiple
  of 2**n.  ".p2align" is preferable for use in assembly language
  sources, since it makes them more portable to object formats other
  than a.out.
