Hi Tucker,

  Well this patch breaks some of the gas tests for targets currently
  use OCTETS_PER_BYTE > 1.  (For example try tic54x-coff and look at
  the gas/org-3 test).

  In fact I do not see any ELF targets that use OCTETS_PER_BYTE > 1,
  so I am wondering where this issue is coming from.  Do you have a
  new target that is using this feature, or a COFF/PE based target
  that is experiencing problems ?

  Anyway, my current feeling is that write.c:relax_segment() is 
  probably not the right place to fix this problem.  My gut feeling
  is that the fr_offset field in the frag that is being used for
  the common definitions needs to be octet adjusted at some earlier
  point.  Precisely which point I do not know.

Cheers
  Nick
