Hi Nathan,
This patch changes the mt assembler to only accept lowercase
architecture names, in line with existing practice. GCC's multilib
support forced lower case names and now gcc itself is case sensitive.
The patch also changes the default to ms1-16-002, which is the same as
gcc's default.
Is this really of any benefit ? Is there some intention to have
uppercase variants of the name mean something different ?
Cheers
Nick
