            Bug ID: 21997
           Summary: missassembly of call to aligned local symbol
           Product: tools
           Version: trunk
          Hardware: Macintosh
                OS: MacOS X

foo.s: example of bug; bar.s: fixed by moving L downstream

when .balign is applied to a local label in the text section, and that symbol
is called at a later point in the same assembly file, the assembler appears to
generate an incorrect relocation that causes a bad pc to be formed by the call.
 the result is a bus error.  the bug seems not to occur if the aligned local
symbol is downstream of
the call site.

I've attached a small test case that reproduces the behavior.  here's the
offending code:

    .globl    _main
    .text
    .balign 1<<4, 0x90
L:
    ret
_main:
    call L // gets a bad pc for L
    xorq %rax, %rax
    ret
