Ah... what assembler?  the perl proprocessor supports multiple
assemblers:
	elf     - Linux, FreeBSD, Solaris x86, etc.
	a.out   - DJGPP, elder OpenBSD, etc.
	coff    - GAS/COFF such as Win32 targets
	win32n  - Windows 95/Windows NT NASM format
	nw-nasm - NetWare NASM format
	nw-mwasm- NetWare Metrowerks Assembler

Maybe you need to replace "elf" with "coff"?
