The GNU assembler does not support the form of the "wr" pseudo-op
used in sparc-sparc64.S.  Change line 190 from
        wr	%g1, %fprs	! say we do not need the registers preserved
to
        wr	%g1, 0, %fprs	! say we do not need the registers preserved


My gcc uses the Solaris assembler so I did not notice this problem.
