I have been off a few days and know that Jeff has provided feedback but
wanted to know if the resolution was to make GAS accept SOM directives
in ELF mode or to fix gcc where it didn't generate SOM directives in
ELF mode?

Is there any ifdef to check and decide which directives to use?

And if there is any reference mapping between them, I would appreciate
knowing about it.
