1.1 Original GAS

The original GAS only supported the a.out object file format with three sections: `.text', `.data', and `.bss'. This is the version of GAS that is compiled if neither BFD_ASSEMBLER nor MANY_SEGMENTS is defined. This version of GAS is still used for the m68k-aout target, and perhaps others.

This version of GAS should not be used for any new development.

There is still code that is specific to this version of GAS, notably in `write.c'. There is no way for this code to loop through all the sections; it simply looks at global variables like text_frag_root and data_frag_root.

The type segT is an enum.
