Apple's cc (actually gcc) does not accept 'asm' statements the way the manual
describes it (it fails to parse them). asm statements are used to map GHC runtime
pseudo registers to actual powerpc machine registers. The assembly source
postprocessing does not work either (it is turned off) but is not related to this
problem (to my knowledge).
