gcc 3.4.6 asm charset error

[Paul Edwards]

GCC 3.4.6 natively handles different character
sets for source and target. It actually works
fine, writing source code in ASCII targeting
an EBCDIC destination.

However, __asm() doesn't seem to be working.
As seen below, it is generating EBCDIC data
in the ASCII assembler output. Those funny
characters are in fact the EBCDIC code for
"ABC" and "DEF".

Anyone know how to fix this?

Thanks. Paul.
