[Bug gas/392] New: gas fails to understand ".set" statement

[tsv at solvo dot ru]

Linux 2.6.8.1 on alpha
GNU assembler version 2.15.92 (alpha-unknown-linux-gnu) using BFD version
2.15.92 20040920

gas generates the following error messages while trying to compile the following
code (libselinux-1.17.12-1.src.rpm package from Fedora development):
avc.s:2234: Warning: Tried to .set unrecognized mode `avc_av_stats'
avc.s:2234: Error: junk at end of line, first unrecognized character is `,'
avc.s:2958: Warning: Tried to .set unrecognized mode `avc_cleanup'
avc.s:2958: Error: junk at end of line, first unrecognized character is `,'

part of assembler code:

$L63:
        mov $15,$30
        ldq $26,16($30)
        ldq $15,24($30)
        lda $30,64($30)
        ret $31,($26),1
        .end avc_av_stats_internal
        .set    macro
        .globl avc_av_stats
.set avc_av_stats, avc_av_stats_internal
        .set    nomacro
        .align 2
        .ent avc_lookup
avc_lookup:
        .frame $15,64,$26,0
        .mask 0x4008000,-64
        ldah $29,0($27)         !gpdisp!66
        lda $29,0($29)          !gpdisp!66

when I change ".set avc_av_stats, avc_av_stats_internal" to
"avc_av_stats = avc_av_stats_internal" it compiles correctly
