[patch] define ASM_COMMENT_START in config/i386/gas.h

[KRECKEL Richard NGLT]

Hi

The following little patch is needed for a cross-compiler targeting a
plain i386-aout embedded system for -fverbose-asm to be useful.
gcc/config.gcc appends "i386/unix.h i386/bsd.h i386/gas.h
i386/gstabs.h i386/i386-aout.h" to $tm_file.  However, i386/unix.h
already defines ASM_COMMENT_START as "/" which gas doesn't understand.
This confuses compilations with -fverbose-asm.  Right now, this
redefinition is done at a later stage for just about any OS (linux,
netbsd, freebsd, darwin, beos, ...) inside the i386/<os>.h files.  The
issue seems to have been brought up before but without any conclusion.
See <http://gcc.gnu.org/ml/gcc-patches/2002-01/msg00118.html>. The
patch applies to GCC-3.3.1 vanilla.
