Author: emaste Date: Thu Aug 1 19:01:27 2019 New Revision: 350518 URL: https://svnweb.freebsd.org/changeset/base/350518 Log: as: add deprecation notice to the man page In the future FreeBSD will ship without GNU binutils 2.17.50. Add a note advising users who require GNU as to install the binutils port or package. Note that on armv7, arm64, amd64, i386 we currently ship only two binutils tools (as and objdump). A deprecation notice was added to objdump's man page some time ago.
