What were the earliest versions of MASM to allow the following
directives as follows:

ASSUME CS:FLAT, DS:FLAT, ES:FLAT..

MASM 5.10 doesn't appear to like above at all. So, which versions does?

5.10B doesn't like it either. Works on 6.00B, so I assume it will
work on any version of MASM 6.
Should have said 5.10A didn't like it. Little typo.
