It generates an rdata pseudo-op that gas doesn't recognise. gcc
thinks it's doing a wonderful job. gas disagrees. From the glance I
took at gas, if I'd configured it for ecoff, it would have known
about rdata. But the gas config (I committed the alpha-elf stuff
cause it wasn't in the diff I sent jdp, and it doesn't affect i386),
declares obj-elf and appears to behave like the NetBSD version of
gas (which is what I think I want).

I'm happy to leave this until you've completed your aout/elf changes.
