Subject: x86: Remove support for old (<= 2.8.1) versions of gcc

Old (<= 2.8.1) versions of gcc generate broken fsubp, fsubrp, fdivp and
fdivrp instructions.  Assembler translates them to correct ones with a
warning:

[hjl@gnu-cfl-1 gas]$ cat x.s
	fsubp %st(3),%st
[hjl@gnu-cfl-1 gas]$ gcc -c x.s
x.s: Assembler messages:
x.s:1: Warning: translating to `fsubp %st,%st(3)'
[hjl@gnu-cfl-1 gas]$

This patch removes support for old (<= 2.8.1) versions of gcc:

[hjl@gnu-cfl-1 gas]$ ./as-new -o x.o x.s
x.s: Assembler messages:
x.s:1: Error: operand type mismatch for `fsubp'
[hjl@gnu-cfl-1 gas]$
