I've been trying some inline assembler in DJGPP. I've just about overcome the 
strange GNU syntax and the new external debug32 (what happened to source 
level debugging?) but I have one strange thing happening.

I assemble an instruction as

        movw %%dx,foo(%%esi,%%ecx,$4)
            (if my memory serves me right - the $ is not needed but is 
             generated by the compiler because I use a %0 for this parameter)

but when I debug it, the addressing mode is different - ecx has not been 
scaled. Can anyone enlighten me? Is this a bug?
