If someone has experience with extended asm please help.

I'd like to pass symbol arguments to my macros. Currently when I try a
macro of this form:

	asm ("call %0" :: "g" (func) : "esp", "ebp", "eax", "ecx",
			"edx");

I get:

	call $_func

This is _almost_ correct but fails to be recognised by my assembler. I
would like to be able to drop the $ from that instruction to tell the
assembler that I don't know the value. Is there a modifier that help
here. If there a way to use 'call' in an asm macro with a symbol value.

thanks,
-Jim.
