`.set SYMBOL, EXPRESSION'

   Set the value of SYMBOL to EXPRESSION.  This changes SYMBOL's value
and type to conform to EXPRESSION.  If SYMBOL was flagged as external,
it remains flagged (*note Symbol Attributes::).
   You may `.set' a symbol many times in the same assembly.
   If you `.set' a global symbol, the value stored in the object file
is the last value stored into it.
   The syntax for `set' on the HPPA is `SYMBOL .set EXPRESSION'.
