Why does this work?  In my experimentation the C preprocessor would collapse the stuff onto a single line (the backslash being a continuation on the preprocessor input, but preprocessor output revealed the newlines being removed), thereby violating the assembly requirement that labels appear in column 1.

Thanks for all your work on this, now I'm just trying to understand what I'm looking at!

Eugene
