After a bit of experimentation, I got it to work. It means we can remove our dependency on the V7 assembler. I've committed tools/assemv2, the script to build with V2 as, and a patch to redefine $mount and $gtty. It probably means that we could rebuild the kernel while running V1; I haven't tried this as yet. Cheers, Warren
