Testing for mips-linux gives ERRORs for the assembly of ld-libs/ lib-1.s and ld-libs/lib-2.s, because the assembler gives an unexpected "Warning: Tried to set unrecognized symbol: foo,0x2000".

The problem is that the MIPS assembler doesn't accept the ".set symbol,value" accepted by the generic assembler on most targets; it only understands a MIPS-specific .set. This patch makes the MIPS assembler support the generic .set (so improving GNU assembler consistency between targets). OK to commit?

	containing a comma.

OK.
