        !           383:

        !           385: name, and a number, which contains the bits to set in
        !           386: @code{target_flags}.  A negative number says to clear bits instead;
        !           387: the negative of the number is which bits to clear.  The actual option
        !           388: name is made by appending @samp{-m} to the specified name.
        !           389:

        !           406: This macro is similar to @code{TARGET_SWITCHES} but defines names of command

        !           409: 
        !           410: Each subgrouping contains a string constant, that defines the fixed part
        !           411: of the option name, and the address of a variable.  The variable, type
        !           412: @code{char *}, is set to the variable part of the given option if the fixed
        !           413: part matches.  The actual option name is made by appending @samp{-m} to the

        !           415: 
        !           416: Here is an example which defines @samp{-mshort-data-@var{number}}.  If the
