I had my own patch that basically did:
-%ifdef FORMAT_COFF
-SECTION .rodata
-%else
-SECTION .rodata align=16
-%endif
+SECTION SECT_RODATA


Then declared:

%ifidn __OUTPUT_FORMAT__,macho
     %define SECT_RODATA .text align=16
%else
     %ifdef FORMAT_COFF
         %define SECT_RODATA .rodata
     %else
         %define SECT_RODATA .rodata align=16
     %endif
%endif

in a global macro file.
