[ECOS] Bug in the license ! (eCos v2.0)

Hi all,
In i386 there are some assembly files necessary to do the dirt work.
The eCos Version 2.0 has a new license header in assembly files like:
##================================================================...
##
## i386.inc
##
## i386 assembler header file
##
##================================================================...
#####ECOSGPLCOPYRIGHTBEGIN####
The problem is that when using "#" in AT&T assembly syntax, if you
follow it with a number, like:
# 59 Temple Place, Suite 330, Boston, MA 02111-1307 USA.
certainly you will get into troubles...
See: http://www.gnu.org/manual/gas-2.9.1/html_mono/as.html#SEC28
> To be compatible with past assemblers, lines that begin with `#'
> have a special interpretation. Following the `#' should be an
> absolute expression (see section Expressions): the logical line
> number of the next line. Then a string (see section > Strings) is
> allowed: if present it is a new logical file name. The rest of the
> line, if any, should be whitespace.
eCos v2.0 for i386 do not compile, :O/
