Yes, and it should be no problem to make gas working also for avr.

I have also a lot of code written on avr in assembler. But it is not very 
senseful to see everytime warnings where nothing is wrong and got no error
if the code is corrupt. That such powerfull instructions like ldd is not 
really supported is not the base for easy assembler writing. 
As I digged into the code it should be possible to parse there for
relocatable
symbols and create neccecarry entries then. Actually there is only a
get_constant in the code which allways throws errors if it is a not
resolveable symbol.

?? Can you give some examples please!
How to manage the missing error messages for ldi, how to get table offsets
for
ldd and a lot of other questions. I hope you help me a lot with
this snipets of code.

I allways put a toolchain backup with my sources on cd. But have you

put your OS with it :-)))

I hope you could help solving my programming problems. So please send some
examples for workarounds!

Thanks
