This prevents from (ab)using the C preprocessor to generate assembly code (e.g.
to generate different versions of a time-critical routine by inserting a
variable amount of wait cycles/NOP instructions through a macro), because
multiline macros (using '\') are turned into single lines. And when msp430-gas
reads multiple instructions on a single line it translates the first one only
and silently ignores the other ones.
Could line 171 of file src/gas/config/tc-msp430.c (revision 1.23) be changed to
something else? Maybe something like:
const char line_separator_chars[] = ":";
instead of :
const char line_separator_chars[] = "";
I have no idea if ":" really is reasonable here; it looks like it's of no use in
MSP430 assembly code anyway, but I could be wrong.
