Thanks alot for reminding me of this old patch of mine.  I had just
stumbled across numerous libjava testsuite failures with mips-tfile errors
on Tru64 UNIX V5.1, but would probably have looked for bugs in mips-tfile
at first.

While the patch is in, it got broken later by this one:

	http://gcc.gnu.org/ml/gcc-patches/1999-10n/msg00388.html

The insertion of main after %u and %U breaks all platforms that use
ASM_FINAL_SPEC, which refers to %g.s and knows nothing (and cannot/should
not need to know) about %umain.s, i.e. a suffix `main.s'.  There can go
nothing between %[guU] and the suffix, since this breaks the ASM_FINAL_SPEC
`protocol'.  Right now I'm bootstrapping with this patch reverted (breaking
-save-temps in the presence of --main again, but I hope this can be fixed
later once we have an idea for a proper solution) to get Tru64 UNIX support
running) and an additional patch to alpha/osf.h's ASM_FINAL_SPEC.

I've a patch for the problem of collect2 passing -fencoding=UTF-8 to cc1 as
well, so I hope Tru64 UNIX support will be in reasonable shape with those
patches.
