See http://gcc.gnu.org/bugs.html for info on how to report bugs.  We 
need a testcase for instance.

I'm guessing that this is an extended asm in the linux sources which use 
\n to separate instructions.  It is arguable whether this is a linux bug 
or a gcc bug.  Maybe the asms should use \;, or maybe gcc should catch 
\n in an asm string and translate it.  Probably gcc has to change here. 
  It is hard to justify a linux kernel source change to support MS 
Windows.  I'd suggest a bug report, or you could try writing a patch.
