c-style assembly in .pasm

[Tupshin Harper]

In my ongoing quest to understand the possibilities (and possible 
limitations) of parrot, here's another one. ;-)
How close a mapping can there be between regular (x86 in this example) 
assembly (as generated by c-compilation) and pasm?
I can't figure out if the stack ops can approximate this kind of thing.

Issues I don't understand are inline in the assembly.

-------------------test.c---------------------
int main(){
        int i=5;
        i++;
}
-----------------test.s------------
main:
        pushl   %ebp
        movl    %esp, %ebp
        subl    $8, %esp           ; Is there a stack pointer to move?
        andl    $-16, %esp
        movl    $0, %eax
        subl    %eax, %esp
        movl    $5, -4(%ebp)    ; Is there any analogue to bit/byte 
sized offsets?
        leal    -4(%ebp), %eax  ; Or is the granularity strictly at the 
"item" level?
        incl    (%eax)                ; can you modify an element on 
the stack in place?
        leave
        ret
