`.align`

  This must be followed by the desired alignment in bytes.

`.word`

  On the OpenRISC, the `.word` directive produces a 32 bit value.

`.nodelay`

  On the OpenRISC, the `.nodelay` directive sets a flag in elf binaries indicating that the binary is generated catering for no delay slots.

`.proc`

  This directive is ignored. Any text following it on the same line is also ignored.
