   /usr/local/src/linux/kernel/linux-2.0.37/include/asm/string.h:118: Invalid 
   `asm'
    statement:
   /usr/local/src/linux/kernel/linux-2.0.37/include/asm/string.h:118: fixed or 
   forb
   idden register 4 (si) was spilled for class SIREG.

These are not assembler errors.  These error messages are from the
compiler, not the assembler.  This problem is described in the gcc
FAQ:
