OK, then why doesn't \/ work? This would be the same as the native assembler. I believe gcc's present default of having / be the comment character, but not allowing \/ to work means that it fails to act like either the solaris as *or* itself on linux/x86. I believe working like linux/x86 would ease porting to solaris/x86, which is important since this is likely to remain a niche x86 platform, but at least acting like the solaris as would be coherent . . .
