Re: make check failures...

   I get the following two failures when running make check on the current
   CVS tree on a NetWinder.

   Running /home/scottb/cvstree/binutils/gas/testsuite/gas/elf/elf.exp ...
   FAIL: elf section0
   FAIL: elf section1

   I looked into this and found the output different from the .d files it
   is compared against.  It seems section alignment is to blame.  A patch
   that fixed it for me is attached.  

For an ELF target I would not expect any section alignment of this
sort.  The tests pass correctly for me for ELF targets, and indeed
your patch would cause the tests to fail.  Your sections appear to be
aligned to 4 byte boundaries.  Why is this happening?
