--- Comment #7 from openhardware <webmaster at openhardware dot de> 2012-03-29 13:40:14 UTC --- "Alternatively, change the documentation to the effect that invalid assembly code and valid (but semantically wrong) assembly code aren't necessarily compiler bugs." Its a "windows-approach" Not a bug but a feature. Intel calls their errata sheets for silicon bugs "specification update" That's really sweet, so whats a spec for? Please fix it in gcc to be a syntax error, or at least throw a warning like "Illegal variable name found in line # might cause illegal assembly code and thus unpredictable results!". This would be the best, so if one has a special "geeks-assembler", that allows a $ to be send to the assembler, so one could use it, for what special geeks-reason ever (may be, to have a hack to illegally allign a variable in memory between the rails of the processors word length in order to smear it into two registers [highbyte of lower register and lowbyte of upper register] of some IO or to do some other dirty stuff directly from hell)
