It was a nightmare to get the large test apps working, they had inline asms
that spaned several pages of A4 with emmbeded labels, control flow, and
other cruff which was why it ended up being so gross.

Also when combined with C++ Templates even the upfront parsing of the
asm gets hairy very quickly.
