- I haven't really tried to find the "right" way to store the fixups or apply
them, yet. This works, but isn't particularly elegant or fast.
- Still no evaluation support, so we don't actually ever not turn a fixup into
a relocation entry.

- This is mostly complete, the main thing missing is .indirect_symbol support
(which would be straight-forward, except that the way it is implemented in
'as' makes getting an exact .o match interesting).

- Honor .globl.
- Set symbol type and section correctly ('nm' now works), and order symbols
appropriately.
- Take care to the string table so that the .o matches 'as' exactly (for ease
of testing).

(e.g., .objc_message_refs).
- Just emit a .align when we see the directive; this isn't exactly what 'as'
does but in practice it should be ok, at least for now. See FIXME.

- Together these form the (Mach-O) back end of the assembler.
- MCAssembler is the actual assembler backend, which is designed to have a
reasonable API. This will eventually grow to support multiple object file
implementations, but for now its Mach-O/i386 only.
- MCMachOStreamer adapts the MCStreamer "actions" API to the MCAssembler API,
e.g. converting the various directives into fragments, managing state like
the current section, and so on.
- llvm-mc will use the new backend via '-filetype=obj', which may eventually
be, but is not yet, since I hear that people like assemblers which actually
assemble.
- The only thing that works at the moment is changing sections. For the time
being I have a Python Mach-O dumping tool in test/scripts so this stuff can
be easily tested, eventually I expect to replace this with a real LLVM tool.
- More doxyments to come.
I assume that since this stuff doesn't touch any of the things which are part of
2.6 that it is ok to put this in not so long before the freeze, but if someone
objects let me know, I can pull it.
