I'm going to guess that you're using the system assembler with a gcc
binary built to assume the GNU assembler. (on an HP?)
If you got a binary distribution of gcc, try installing binutils too. If
you built gcc yourself, make sure you're not configuring '--with-gnu-as'
or try adding '--with-as=<full-path-to-gnu-assembler>'.
