I just compiled GAS and thought I'd try it on GNU strip.

>A description of exactly what went wrong.

$ gmake
gcc -O2 -DUSG -DCOFF_ENCAPSULATE -DPORTAR -DNON_NATIVE
-DSYS_SIGLIST_MISSING   -c strip.c -o strip.o
strip.c:703:no such 386 instruction: `repnz'

gmake: *** [strip.o] Error

The type of machine GAS was running on (VAX, 68020, etc),

i486

The Operating System GAS was running under.

SCO UNIX 3.2v4 w/ GCC 2.2.2

The options given to GAS.

dunno, called from GCC

The actual input file that caused the problem.
