Feel free.  I just wondered how far one can get with yasm compatibility,
seen that for instance tcc simply uses the C parser and preprocessor
for the assembler,  or that forward jump distance calculation would
require some intermediate code representation that tcc does not have.
It's not that I don't like the idea.
