Note -mdynamic-no-pic should not be used with shared libraries, also it is not
in the FSF's gcc until 3.4 (aka it is in the cvs).
I have filed a bug with the FSF, http://gcc.gnu.org/PR11387 because I still think this is a gcc bug
(and not an apple specific one, I can reproduce it with the mainline of the FSF's gcc) and not an as bug either.
Thanks, Andrew Pinski

OK, I hunted it down. It is really too silly: The code produced by a fortran STOP statement (without optional stop-code) is treated as an error by the new assembler. Definitely a bug in as.No because gcc should produce something at that symbol but it is not, so the bug still is in gcc, not as.
Actually, the situation is worse: g77 is doing this in many other situations. The simple "Hello World" program
PRINT*,'Hello World' END
produces this error, and even the minimal program
END
does it. All versions of g77 I could get my hands on produce a label without data in this case. No other assembler than the new Apple one considers this an error.
What are the chances that we will see a fix of this bug in gcc-3.3 so that we will be able to use g77 again with Apple's new assembler?
From what you are saying and given Apple's repeatedly demonstrated lack of interest in g77, I fear that the user will be left out in the cold on this.
Lack of interest? Just because they don't ship it doesn't mean they lack interest in it. I think Apple is well aware that a noticable share of its users are coming from science, and Fortran (that includes G77) is vital there.Don't give up to early. File bug reports with Apple's bug reporter, and get everybody else to file the bug, too (yeah this time I am advocating multiple bug reports. If many people complain, maybe they notice that it's not just an oddball weirdo user experiencing the problem).
My real concern here isn't whether they'll fix it; rather, *if* they fix it: maybe you have to wait again half a year before they release a dev tools bug fix update *grmbl*.
