FreeBSD 5.0 with gcc 3.2.1 or 3.2.2 inserts garbage into its assembly
code when the gcc -pg and -fPIC options are used together. The assembler
complains about syntax errors in the assembly code.
The problem is caused by a leftover %s in a format string that was not
removed when it's matching parameter was removed when a.out support was
removed from the compiler. The error crept in to rev 1.59 of
src/contrib/gcc/config/i386/freebsd.h.
