Re: [9fans] GAS front-end for 8a?

Thanks!

I will check it out. I mostly made a shot at ffi since it is listed as a 
dependency for a couple of packages I would be interested in building (or at 
least try to build).

On a more general note though, being able to convert GAS ASM to Plan9 ASM (and 
possibly also the other way around) would be quite handy sometimes, I guess.
