really odd, I suspect you need to follow the build process when
GM2_FLAGS includes the -v option.  This will show which assembler is
used and maybe then a tiny program can be substituted instead of
SymbolTable.mod, the .s file examined and the .o file as well.
Finally I find it useful to recreate a similar tiny source file in C
and then run ./xgcc -v -c foo.c (when in build-4.1.x/gcc) as a
reference.

Incidentally do you need to install binutils for this platform?
Just wondering as the assembler syntax indicates a non gnu as..
