[Bug gas/4303] New: gas 2.14 and over make a stabs symbol ABS while gas 2.13 makes it UND

[Quentin dot Godfroy at ens dot fr]

I hope this has not been said on the ML around 2002.

With a directive «.stabs "foo", 0, 0, 0, 0», gas 2.14 makes the symbol foo ABS
and local, while gas 2.13.2 makes it UND and global.

More precisely, a regression from CVS repository showed that the "feature" was
added on 2002-08-09, but the changelog doesn't mention it, and no changes to bfd
or libiberty were done on this day, according to the changelogs.

I think this is a bug. I don't know however how to correct it.
