Subject: Revisions from Jeff Law to HPPA-directives section.
X-Git-Url: https://git.libre-soc.org/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=60ce6e743ced35607b04dacfc2940107a6985ba3;p=binutils-gdb.git

Revisions from Jeff Law to HPPA-directives section.

This version formats cleanly under makeinfo, and in Cygnus format.

Default FSF format works without error, but tables of machine
instructions for some machines have stupid page boundaries (FSF
version uses larger page size).
