Re: inline asm mmx: how to movq from memory to %mmX

[Robert Plantz <plantz@sonoma.edu>]

You are missing two commas:
        asm("movq %0 %%mm1\n\t"
>             "paddq %%mm1 %%mm0"
> 

should be:
        asm("movq %0, %%mm1\n\t"
            "paddq %%mm1, %%mm0"

I did not check for any other errors, but this now compiles without error on my system.
