   Hello, Joel.  I've just analyzed the problem report.  It seems to me a
 binutils bug.  Gas manual clearly says that .subspace pseudo-op should
 work for SOM and ELF:
 
 
    When `as' generates SOM or ELF output for the HPPA, `as' can also
 generate whatever other named sections you specify using the `.space'
 and `.subspace' directives.  See `HP9000 Series 800 Assembly Language
 Reference Manual' (HP 92432-90001) for details on the `.space' and
 `.subspace' assembler directives.
 
 
   Looking at the assembler sources I see that the subspace is processed
 only for SOM.
 
 
 I am going to close the problem.
 
 Could you resubmit the bug into binutils gnat.
 
 Best regards, Vladimir Makarov
