The native SCO assembler that is provided with the OS at no
charge is normally required. If, however, you must be able to
use the GNU assembler you may configure this package using
the flags --with-gnu-as. You must use a recent version of GNU
binutils; version 2.9.1 seems to work well. If you select this
option, you will be unable to reliably build COFF images. In
general, the --with-gnu-as option isn't as well tested as the
native assembler.
You almost certainly do NOT want to use GAS on OpenServer. If you are
using binary kits, you absolutely do not want to use it.
