Hi,
	i have ported binutils (2.13.1) to new target.

    I have small query consider the following exambple

ABC:				;Line 1
        .short 0x88	;	2
Lp.1:				;	3
        .short  ABC+9	;	4

First of all what exactly does it mean, and how is it handled in general
GAS/Linker?

Secondly:
Now when my bfd assembler parses Line 4 it passes it to fix_new_exp().

	Poblem 1: fix_new_exp() does not handle negative value in fr_offset
attribute

	i.e .short  ABC-9
	is grabled and "-9" is lost
	So even though i have the address of ABC i dont know what to
add/substract.

	Problem 2:
	How can i pass this "value (exp->X_add_number)"(9 in this case) to
linker along with the reloc entry.Though
	i have defined external_reloc in include/coff/XXX.h containing this
value attribute.

Regards
Vineet
