Hi!

(This is cross-posted to two lists. Please reply to the
 binutils list *only*. Thanks.)

On Sep 27, 2002, there was a gas test added for VAX, which fails on
NetBSD these days. I've also built a binutils snapshot of Sep 30,
but that also fails. This test isn't strictly vax-netbsdelf specific,
but should also run for vax-linux (patch will follow the other day).
Could somebody review it?

The testcase was added at 
http://sources.redhat.com/ml/binutils-cvs/2002-09/msg00184.html .
Building this results in no testcase tailures. Then came
http://sources.redhat.com/ml/binutils-cvs/2002-09/msg00190.html, which
modifies PLT32/PC32 handling and the testcase starts failing. But
wasn't vax-netbsdelf the only target at the time that was ELF? And
probably even the most famous [tm] VAX target at that time. I wonder
why this didn't came up earlier...
