Apologies for the severity change, Andrew.  Shortly after filing the bug, I saw
the severity was "normal" and thought perhaps the system had glitched or I had
forgotten to set that field of the form.  I didn't see the email showing you
had altered the severity until after I had bumped it to "major" again.

That being said, company I work for is attempting to complete a 32-bit Linux
port of our primary product wholly using GCC (we are currently using a GCC and
Intel compiler mix), and -masm=intel is an unavoidable requirement for our
code.  This bug is a serious problem for us.  I defer to your judgement on the
relevant severity of bugs, but please realise that this has considerably more
impact than the simple "hello, world" example I gave.
