Overview Description:
When prefixing an equate with the letter 'r', the OUT instruction complains
about an incorrect register/register number.
Steps to reproduce:
Create a small source file (test.S) with the following code:
.equ rColor3,6
out 0x02,rColor3
...Assemble using for instance...
avr-as test.S
The output of make is:
test.S:2: Error: register name or number from 0 to 31 required
Same problem if using the following line instead of the equate:
rColor = 6
However, if changing the code to...
.equ erColor3,6
out 0x02,erColor3
The file assembles fine.
It also works fine, if changing the .equ to the following:
erColor3=6
out 0x02,erColor3
Build Date & Platform:
The full version number of the build is 2.20.1.20100303.
Additional Builds and Platforms:
My build is running on Mac OS X v10.5; but other people have experienced this
bug as well on a different (most likely Linux) operating system.
Additional information:
I imagine the code in my mind, and expect that the handler for the OUT
instruction is comparing the character it's reading with 'r', then checks if a
number follows that letter. If not, it complains.
Otherwise it probably looks up the label in the equates list.
I am not familiar with the source, but have written a few assemblers once.
There's a link to a discussion in the following forum, if it's helpful. I've
made a downloadable project that triggers the error:

I do not know if I'm at the right place (I hope I am, though) - if not, please
let me know.
You may send me email to ask further questions if you like.
