Notice that this really is a bug in your program. In PIC code, ebx is reserved as the PIC register, and cannot be used for anything. You should really declare ebx as an output register here; if you do so, g++ 2.95 will report t.cpp:16: Invalid `asm' statement: t.cpp:16: fixed or forbidden register 3 (bx) was spilled for class BREG. and g++ 3.1 will report t.cpp:16: error: can't find a register in class `BREG' while reloading `asm' So if there is any bug in the compiler, it is that it doesn't reject your code. This bug has been reported as http://gcc.gnu.org/ml/gcc-bugs/2001-08/msg00856.html Regards, Martin -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
