  fstcw (-196(%ebp)) // offset from memory

The -196(%ebp) comes from gcc, and of course is legal for "g",
the outer parentheses come from you.

This is a double indirection, and wrong. You haven't accepted
my explaination, so perhaps you should read about "g" in the
Gcc manual. And, "g" does *not* ask for a register, you must
not reference anything you got by the "g". It may work, or 
it may not.

I have shown you code, that should work. Have you tried it?
