gcc 1.36 puts out code that the AT&T SystemV.3.1 assembler chokes
on (it assembles with BSD/gas):

m380mach6{66} cat tst1.c

	struct from     { unsigned short field; } from[1];
	struct to       { char    field1; }to[1];
	
	lose()
	{
        	unsigned char i;
	
        	to[1].field1 = from[i].field;
	}

m380mach6{67} /lib/fgcc-cc1 -quiet -version -fvolatile tst1.c

	GNU C version 1.36 (80386, ATT syntax) compiled by GNU C version 1.36.
