Sure but maybe still some misunderstanding :) I wasn't trying to use the 
.asm files with the gas assembler... My queries about gas were just an 
aside really.

masm assembles fine for me. But at link time (with the gnu linker):

Warning: .drectve `/EXPORT:jump_fcontext /EXPORT:make_fcontext 3'
unrecognized

And then the linker dies:

collect2: ld terminated with signal 6 [Aborted], core dumped

I worked around it as mentioned in the initial post, though I'm sure 
there are better solutions!
