-Specifying the -g flag to GCC on a RISC iX machine requires upgrading the 
-standard assembler distributed with both RISC iX 1.1 and RISC iX 1.2 with a 
-replacement that is available from Acorn.  This version of the assembler is
-also an order of magnitude faster when assembling to an NFS mounted 
-file-system.
-
-Users of RISC iX 1.2 and above can obtain a copy of the assembler from the 
-following places:
-
-1) Via ftp from acorn.acorn.co.uk, directory pub/riscix.
-
-2) From Acorn Customer Services.
-
-3) From Granada Microcare.
-
-Users of versions of RISC iX prior 1.2 should contact Acorn Customer Services;
-the assembler available on the net will not work with these versions due to
-changes in the shared libraries and system call numbers.
