   <p>The <span class="samp">.desc</span> directive is not available when <span class="command">as</span> is

configured for COFF output; it is only for <code>a.out</code> or <code>b.out</code>
 |

object format.  For the sake of compatibility, <span class="command">as</span> accepts
 | 
						|
it, but produces no output, when configured for COFF.
