Thanks, Matthias. I made some progress by switching over to AVR Studio 4 (as I have yet a JTAG MkI). Conclusion, avra is buggy (at least my git patched at90can128 code) while avrasm2.exe seems to work.
Working under Windows is not something most Linux guys (like me) desire. We would have preferred the asm code to be avr-gcc compatible for our avr-gdb and other tools pleasure. Anyway, my idea is to prepare Amforth as a boot section permanent code in a product. Would enable the customer to easily run post production tests, etc. Will report progress if there is any :-) Thanks, Enoch. P/S Could you affiliate the project with an official git repository? That would make it easier to contribute code. github, for example, is free to open source projects.
