Wow - pretty accurate prediction :)

Right - that was one of the first fixes after the problematic 1st pgcc release.
I too am confused as to how the presence or absence of an align
directive is having an effect on the symbols that gas sees.  I will confirm
that adding a .align works and then send off to Ian to see his thoughts.
Hopefully, this is restricted to just pgcc (which doesn't use align much),
and not egcs.

Thanks for looking at it.

Andy
