	I compiled gcc2.7.2 and g++2.7.2 and libg++2.7.1.

	In some cases, g++ will generate assembly code that /usr/bin/as
cannot assemble (e.g. 'pseudo-op .weak'). So I want to compile new as(gas).

	I read the README of gas distribution and find that it does not
support freebsd platform (only 386bsd). What should I do to compile gas
under freebsd?

	And, by the way, can I recompile gcc such that it will work with
the original /usr/bin/as?

	Thanks a lot.
