Re: [trunk][RFA] Add __i686.get_pc_thunk.bx to libgcc i386 morestack.S

*sigh*

As it turns out, adding __i686.get_pc_thunk.bx to this assembly code
-- *cough* this _preprocessed_ assembly code -- chokes in certain
configurations.

For instance, if you configure with:
??--with-arch-32=pentium3
then libgcc will build with -march=pentium3

The way the symbol-visibility files are built and processed,
morestack.vis is generated from morestack.S, and contains:
? ? ? ? .hidden __i686.get_pc_thunk.bx
morestack.vis is included via -include when compiling morestack.S.

./morestack.vis:4: Error: junk at end of line, first unrecognized
character is `1'

As someone smarter than me might have guessed... in this
configuration, __i686 is defined to be '1'.
So, even if the trunk get_thunk code continues to use
__i686.get_pc_thunk.<reg>, it's necessary to use something different
here.

Kinda feels like I got smacked in the face by walking into my own
rake...  *sigh*


Ian, per your previous comment (which I read as pre-approval for this
change 8-), I'm planning to commit the attached as soon as it's done
testing.
