That's definitely wrong --- fixed.

Perhaps it should be ".globl"? That's another common spelling.

Do you know whether anyone uses the GNU assembler on this platform,
or is it always SGI's? I'm wondering if we need two versions of the
assembly code ...

I had missed the fact that s_lock.c contains some MIPS code. Anyone
have any idea what versions of the MIPS series this code runs on?
