Now, take what I say with a pinch of salt, as I've never used it. I
think people use it successfully. And as I think it does understand
Intel syntax and can generate coff, I think this is exactly what you
need.

Well it depends what you want to use it for: for your code in Intel
syntax, it's better than gas; for code generated by gcc gas is
probably better. Yes?

Verify what I've said before you decide, as I've never used it.
