Making a direct function call from inline assembly

Hi,

I am trying to make a direct function call from inline assembly like this:

    asm("call %0" : : "i"(func));

This doesn't work because GCC will generate something like

    call $mangledFunc

which will give an assembly error.
Is there a way to do this?

Thanks in advance!
Job

PS: I know I can do something like

    asm("call *%0" : : "r"(func));

But then it's not a direct call anymore.

PPS: I also posted this question on StackOverflow:
