[Bug gas/6944] New: GNU as manual / GNU as itself is incorrect about dollar local labels

Cite:

"Dollar labels are defined in exactly the same way as ordinary local labels,
except that instead of being terminated by a colon, they are terminated by a
dollar sign (for example, 55$)."

This is not true. You have to put colon after '$' and you have to put '$' when
referencing this label as well.

For example:

label:
 nop
55$: nop
 bra 55$

label2:
 nop
55$: bop
 bra 55$

is the only way how to use dollar local labels. Even when gas is configured as
allowing labels with no colon, I have to use colons here.
