Hmm, I can't seem to find the MASM documentation that I used to
implement the parser.  My recollection is that reserved words could not
be used as symbols, but it's been a while.

For the time being, I would suggest testing the input code on MS
assembler (sorry, I don't have one).  If it compiles, then let's go with
the patch.  If it doesn't, we could issue a more descriptive error
message instead.
