  30    * HAVE_ASM_SET_DIRECTIVE if we have `.set B, A' instead of `A = B'.
  31    * ASM_GLOBAL_DIRECTIVE with `.globl' or `.global'.
  32    * HAVE_GNU_LD if using GNU ld, with support for weak symbols in a.out,
  33    and for symbol set and warning messages extensions in a.out and ELF.
  34    * HAVE_ELF if using ELF, which supports weak symbols using `.weak'.
  35    * HAVE_ASM_WEAK_DIRECTIVE if we have weak symbols using `.weak'.
  36    * HAVE_ASM_WEAKEXT_DIRECTIVE if we have weak symbols using `.weakext'.
