I was refering to add .code32 before and .code16 after the problematic
lines. The upgrade of binutils on my system will occurs another day.

Well, bison was yelling for every percent character it encountered into
the file. After a google search on the error, I saw people having the
same problem on other unrelated projects. The solution proposed on the
sites was to upgrade bison. I was using bison 1.75, from the ports of
FreeBSD. An upgrade to 2.03 solved the problem.
Curently, the build stage terminate flawlessly. But I am totally unable
to run the check target of the Makefile because I am failing to locate
the proper package/port that provide the m2c program. I tried the Garden
Point Modula-2 compiler which fails to run the tests. Maybe you could
tell me what application I should install on my system so I can have the
m2c binary ?
