Actually, we'd better split it like this:

  else if (flag_pic == 1)
    out = "bsr.w %0@PLTPC";
  else if (TARGET_68020)
    out = "bsr.l %0@PLTPC";


BTW, why is libiberty built with -fpic on the m68k?
Wouldn't -fPIC be more appropriate and safer?

Today, -fpic has lost much of its applicability outside
tiny embedded systems.
