PPC and -fasm-blocks?

[Peter Dufault]

I'm looking at moving some code from a Metrowerks application to RTEMS.

Apple has added "-fasm-blocks" to support Metrowerks flavor assembler, 
i.e.:

asm void foo {
	assembler here
}

and this is used a lot in the code I'm looking at.

Has anyone used a patched version of gcc that has this in it on RTEMS, 
and can they suggest a good version for Power PC?  Apples shipping 
release is "gcc (GCC) 3.3 20030304 (Apple Computer, Inc. build 1495)", 
I'm starting to look around for the 3.3 patches now.
