System: NetBSD klondike 1.1B NetBSD 1.1B (KLONDIKE) #99: Sat Mar 30 00:49:14 MET 1996 leo@klondike:/usr/src/sys/arch/pc532/compile/KLONDIKE pc532


>Description:
	On architectures with local labels enabled (e.g. ns32k) gas fails to
	recognice floatingpoint constants in the form 0fInf and 0fNaN.
	On the pc532 this prevents the compilation of libm.
>How-To-Repeat:
	$ echo ".double 0fInf" >/tmp/tst.s
	$ as /tmp/tst.s
