Naw, it's not Paul's problem to fix -- it's mine. If HLA is generating assembly code that cannot be handled by MASM, then I should fix this problem in HLA rather than requiring end-users to work around the problem (shades of RosAsm!).


I think the problem is that Paul (accidentally?) included an incomplete FASM source for hlaadv with the main distribution and someone tried to assemble that using MASM.
