Yes, unfortunately GCC 3.0 deprecated multiline string literals -- I saw
someone arguing on the GCC mailing lists that writing large chunks of
inline asm shouldn't be "easy", as it interferes with the compiler's
optimization passes. There were other such braindead arguments
supporting the deprecation. The thread should be pretty easy to find in
the archives. Don't know if the deprecation will be removed in future
versions.
