Comment (by egall@…):

 Replying to [comment:9 jeremyhu@…]:
 > IMO, this is a gcc problem to work out.  If the assembler doesn't
 support an instruction set, it shouldn't be used.  gcc should either not
 use these instruction sets or should use llvm's assembler.

 You're referring to the gcc '''port'''(s) here, right? I see no reason why
 gcc upstream would want to use the assembler of a competing compiler; they
 would probably just recommend that we update the binutils port and us the
 `as` that it provides instead...
