Well, I got past this problem by installing the GNU assembler from the
bintools archive first.  Then when you do the configure you need to
tell config that you are using the GNU assembler (look at the install
dox for info).  This should do it.

I am having a problem though when I use the -A switch.  I get the
following message from the compiler:

*Initialization*:1: missing token-sequence in `#assert'

This switch is used, unfortunately, by a bunch of packages that I have
been trying to install.  If you have any hints on this one let me
know.  I am also going to post a different article with the same info
in it in case someone else has a clue.
