Compilation of gas fails on OSF/1

[Bjørn Reese]

Compiling gas on OSF/1 (see exact version at the buttom) fails with

./config/tc-alpha.c:2654: warning: implicit declaration of function 
`ALPHA_RELOC_TABLE'
./config/tc-alpha.c:2654: invalid type argument of `->'

The problem appears to be that ALPHA_RELOC_TABLE is only defined
if RELOC_OP_P is defined, which in turn only is defined if OBJ_ELF
is, and it isn't (OSF/1 uses COFF.)

I solved the problem with the following patch, but I am not sure
if that is correct. Furthermore, the use of ALPHA_RELOC_TABLE should
probably be better guarded.
