Very strange, It compiles ok if you remove the comment after:
	andl $0xFF000000,(%eax)
or if you use # as the comment start. It also compiles ok if you use gcc
instead of as, since gcc runs cpp on the source file if it has .S
extension and cpp removes comments. Later I'll try to compile your
sample with as under linux, I'm wondering if that's just an as for DOS
extravaganza.

Hope this help.
