PPC/GAS: Correct a signed vs unsigned comparison error with GCC 4.1
Fix a build error: cc1: warnings being treated as errors .../gas/config/tc-ppc.c: In function 'ppc_dwsect': .../gas/config/tc-ppc.c:4091: warning: comparison between signed and unsigned make[4]: *** [config/tc-ppc.o] Error 1 observed with GCC 4.1.2 with the `powerpc-beos' target. Here `flag' identifies the type of a DWARF section, as used with the the first operand to the `.dwsect' pseudo-op, and has no notion of a sign, or for that matter being arithmetic in the first place[1]. We already handle this correctly with the `flag' member of the `xcoff_dwsect_name' structure, however not in the local variable used in GAS to hold the parsed value of said `.dwsect' pseudo-op's operand. Use an unsigned data type in GAS then too, observing that both `offsetT' and `valueT' have the same width, as they correspond to `bfd_signed_vma' and `bfd_vma' respectively. References: [1] "AIX Version 7.2: Assembler Language Reference", IBM Corporation 2015, 2018, Section ".dwsect pseudo-op", pp. 531-532 gas/ * config/tc-ppc.c (ppc_dwsect): Use `valueT' rather than `offsetT' as the type of `flag'.
