Summary: gas 2.2.0 generates wrong code

Initial Comment:
This bug in gnu assembler 2.2.0 http://sourceware.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=10856 miscompiles Crypto++, causing pycryptopp and Tahoe-LAFS, which depend on Crypto++, to fail: http://allmydata.org/trac/tahoe/ticket/853

There is a patch in gas trunk which fixes this issue, which was a regression from the previous release of gas.  See the sourceware.org link above for that.

Here is the launchpad page which is tracking the progress of this issue across the numerous operating systems and open source projects which it affects:
