If 'as68k' is close to MOTOROLA standard assembly syntax, then a tool found in the BSD-4.4-lite(whatever) distribtution may help in converting the source from MOTOROLA to GAS/MIT syntax. the path is: src/sys/arch/m68k/fpsp/asm2gas from the BSD-4.4 'root' for the source directory tree. 'asm2gas' is a sh script which transforms the mot into gas. As an added item. the 'fpsp' is a version of the needed routines to make a MC68040 work with floating point operations that were found on the MC68881/2 FPU chips. So, not only does this include a tranlator, but also a software package that for the MC68040 was a sort point. Motorola should have just made it available in the first place, but originally they charged for it. A full BSD-4.4 source distriubtion can be gotten from: sun-lamp.cs.berkeley.edu or mirror sites.
