FYI, use of the current IA-64 binutils sources is not recommended with
gcc, glibc, linux kernel, etc at the moment. At least not until I have
had a chance to fix problems caused by recent changes, which won't be
until next week. If you want to try just to help find bugs, that is
great, just don't expect it to work.
Also, FYI, there are more potentially destabilizing binutils changes
coming, so there might be more breakage.

I'm looking at this now. At first glance it appears to be a gas bug.
