So the problem is still there in GCC 3.0.

Ah, sorry that I didn't test different assemblers.

I now tested with Gas from Binutils 2.10, and I still see the same
problem.  Gas 2.10 is the version I tried (on another machine) with
GCC 2.7.2.1, where the problem didn't exist.

So it looks like Gas is not the problem.  But I admit that I'm not
familiar with all the details of "gcc -S" output, so perhaps I'm
missing something.

Anyway, thanks for looking into this.
