            Bug ID: 17900
           Summary: INCLUDE fails if exclamation mark is not followed by a
                    space
           Product: binutils
           Version: 2.24
            Status: NEW
          Severity: normal
          Priority: P2
         Component: ld

If a linker script that is INCLUDEd contains a MEMORY region:

MEMORY
{
  rom (rx) : ORIGIN = 0x00000000, LENGTH = 64M
  ram (!rx) : ORIGIN = 0x48000000, LENGTH = 32M
}

parsing will fail. Adding a space after the exclamation mark fixes the issue:

MEMORY
{
  rom (rx) : ORIGIN = 0x00000000, LENGTH = 64M
  ram (! rx) : ORIGIN = 0x48000000, LENGTH = 32M
}

This extra space is not required when the contents are not INCLUDEd but just
pasted together in one text file.
