Hello,


OS: NetBSD BETA NetBSD 1.0_BETA, Mon Aug  1 16:48:16 PDT 1994
Arch: i386
Package: gas-2.5


When gas-2.5 is built for NetBSD.i386 (target==host) it is configured
to *not* use bfd.  Instead the `builtin' aout code is used.  As a
result:

	o	The a_info (magic nr et.al.) are written to the
		file in host (little) endian mode.

		NetBSD a_info field is in network endian order


	o	The Magic number doesn't include the `machine'
		information (0x86 for NetBSD.i386).


The quick fix is to change gas-2.5 for i386-*-netbsd* to be built
using bfd_gas=yes. (Assuming that bfd has been fixed to correctly
create NetBSD object files :-)

PS: On the bright site, NetBSD.i386 object files are correct.
