[Bug gas/6956] New: When in MRI mode, local labels don't work correctly

[miro dot kropacek at gmail dot com]

Take this example code (m68k, MRI mode)

xxxglob:
        dc.w    -1

1:      nop
        bra.b     1f

ffxxx:
        dc.w    -2

1:      nop
        bra.b   1b

it assembles into this:

ff ff (-1)
4e 71 (nop)
60 02 (bra.b +2 bytes)
ff fe (-2)
4e 71 (nop)
60 f5 (bra -11 bytes, wtf?! it should be bra -2 bytes here!)
ab cd (0xabcd)

I tested it even on old gas 2.13 and this bug is here... strange nobody noticed
it. It happens only when in MRI mode.
