Prakash R.:
Can I use "m4" as a front end to the assembler that I'm building? [...]
based on the preprocessor facilities you specified, i would suggest some
small cpp instead of m4. in general, m4 is seductive but fickle; it quickly
becomes difficult to handle for anything outside simple macro tasks. unless
you are already proficient with m4, do not bother. [trust me, i know m4.]
