-Changes since 2.5:
+Changes in 2.11:
+
+x86 gas now supports the full Pentium4 instruction set.
+
+Support for AMD x86-64 architecture, by Jan Hubicka, SuSE Labs.
+
+Support for Motorola 68HC11 and 68HC12.
+
+Support for Texas Instruments TMS320C54x (tic54x).
+
+Support for IA-64.
+
+Support for i860, by Jason Eckhardt.
+
+Support for CRIS (Axis Communications ETRAX series).
+
+x86 gas has a new .arch pseudo op to specify the target CPU architecture.
+
+x86 gas -q command line option quietens warnings about register size changes
+due to suffix, indirect jmp/call without `*', stand-alone prefixes, and
+translating various deprecated floating point instructions.
+
+Changes in 2.10:
+
+Support for the ARM msr instruction was changed to only allow an immediate
+operand when altering the flags field.
+
+Support for ATMEL AVR.
+
+Support for IBM 370 ELF. Somewhat experimental.
+
+Support for numbers with suffixes.
+
+Added support for breaking to the end of repeat loops.
+
+Added support for parallel instruction syntax (DOUBLEBAR_PARALLEL).
+
+New .elseif pseudo-op added.
+
+New --fatal-warnings option.
+
+picoJava architecture support added.
+
+Motorola MCore 210 processor support added.
+
+A new pseudo-op .intel_syntax has been implemented to allow gas to parse i386
+assembly programs with intel syntax.
+
+New pseudo-ops .func,.endfunc to aid in debugging user-written assembler code.
+
+Added -gdwarf2 option to generate DWARF 2 debugging information.
+
+Full 16-bit mode support for i386.
+
+Greatly improved instruction operand checking for i386. This change will
+produce errors or warnings on incorrect assembly code that previous versions of
+gas accepted. If you get unexpected messages from code that worked with older
+versions of gas, please double check the code before reporting a bug.
+
+Weak symbol support added for COFF targets.
+
+Mitsubishi D30V support added.
+
+Texas Instruments c80 (tms320c80) support added.
+
+i960 ELF support added.
+
+ARM ELF support added.
+
+Changes in 2.9:
+
+Texas Instruments c30 (tms320c30) support added.
+
+The assembler now optimizes the exception frame information generated by egcs
+and gcc 2.8. The new --traditional-format option disables this optimization.
+
+Added --gstabs option to generate stabs debugging information.
+
+The -a option takes a new suboption, m (e.g., -alm) to expand macros in a
+listing.
+
+Added -MD option to print dependencies.
+
+Changes in 2.8:
+
+BeOS support added.
+
+MIPS16 support added.
+
+Motorola ColdFire 5200 support added (configure for m68k and use -m5200).
+
+Alpha/VMS support added.
+
+m68k options --base-size-default-16, --base-size-default-32,
+--disp-size-default-16, and --disp-size-default-32 added.
+
+The alignment directives now take an optional third argument, which is the
+maximum number of bytes to skip. If doing the alignment would require skipping
+more than the given number of bytes, the alignment is not done at all.
+
+The ELF assembler has a new pseudo-op, .symver, used for symbol versioning.
+
+The -a option takes a new suboption, c (e.g., -alc), to skip false conditionals
+in listings.
+
+Added new pseudo-op, .equiv; it's like .equ, except that it is an error if the
+symbol is already defined.
+
+Changes in 2.7:
+
+The PowerPC assembler now allows the use of symbolic register names (r0, etc.)
+if -mregnames is used. Symbolic names preceded by a '%' (%r0, etc.) can be
+used any time. PowerPC 860 move to/from SPR instructions have been added.
+
+Alpha Linux (ELF) support added.
+
+PowerPC ELF support added.
+
+m68k Linux (ELF) support added.
+
+i960 Hx/Jx support added.
+
+i386/PowerPC gnu-win32 support added.
+
+SCO ELF support added. For OpenServer 5 targets (i386-unknown-sco3.2v5) the
+default is to build COFF-only support. To get a set of tools that generate ELF
+(they'll understand both COFF and ELF), you must configure with
+target=i386-unknown-sco3.2v5elf.
+
+m88k-motorola-sysv3* support added.
+
+Changes in 2.6:
Gas now directly supports macros, without requiring GASP.
-Gas now has an MRI assembler compatibility mode.
+Gas now has an MRI assembler compatibility mode. Use -M or --mri to select MRI
+mode. The pseudo-op ``.mri 1'' will switch into the MRI mode until the ``.mri
+0'' is seen; this can be convenient for inline assembler code.
+
+Added --defsym SYM=VALUE option.
Added -mips4 support to MIPS assembler.
Added PIC support to Solaris and SPARC SunOS 4 assembler.
-Changes since 2.3:

+Changes in 2.0:
Mostly bug fixes.
----------------------------------------------------------------
-Changes for 1.94:
+Changes in 1.94:
BFD merge is partly done. Adventurous souls may try giving configure the
"--with-bfd-assembler" option. Currently, ELF format requires it, a.out format

+Changes in 1.93.01:
For m68k, support for more processors has been added: 68040, CPU32, 68851.
