config/mips/trampolines.c on SGI

[Lee Iverson]

In the process of re-adapting kaffe for SGI Irix 6.x I've run into a
problem with the trampoline definition.  It seems that the lines:

	sw	$31, 0($sp)					\n
l1:	.word	" C_FUNC_NAME(soft_fixup_trampoline) "		\n
	.globl 	mips_do_fixup_trampoline			\n
	.ent	mips_do_fixup_trampoline			\n
mips_do_fixup_trampoline:					\n

cause a problem with the SGI assembler in which it refuses to compile
with the following error:

/bin/sh ../../../libtool --mode=compile gcc -DHAVE_CONFIG_H -I. -I. -I../../../config -I../../../include -I../../../kaffe/kaffevm/systems/unix-jthreads -I.. -I./.. -DTRANSLATOR -DJIT3  -DKVER='"1.0.5"' -I/home/canada2/leei/src/gcc/kaffe-cvs/./kaffe/kaffevm -I/home/canada2/leei/src/gcc/kaffe-cvs/./kaffe/kaffevm/systems/unix-jthreads -I../../../config -I../../../include  -I/usr/local/include  -g -O2 -Wall -Wstrict-prototypes -c -o machine.lo machine.c

Is there some documentation as to what this functions is *expected* to
do or some other means by which it can be achieved?  Given context,
I'm sure I can fix it, I just don't have time to track down that
context from the sources.
