And gas, taking the bloatedness to new heights, will require 8 bytes of
memory, 32 kB of hard disk space (making it impossible to compile Merced
code on a C64 -- the gas team has already issued a public apology for this)
and a toaster. 

(No, I won't buy an assember. An assembLer, on the other hand ;-) )

Still, this might be useful. It would have been useful already today,

and I guess most asm programmers who've survived are hardcore enough...)
