Thanks, this is very helpful.

The first error, at line 116, is for the bundle

.mmi;	add	r20 = 500, r33	
	add	r21 = 500, r34	
	mov	r23 = r36		
	;;

Since in the 5.0.5 version, all ".mmi-type"
bundles (whatever that means, I have never learnt ia64 assembly) are
enclosed in {...}, I'll second Marc's suggestion to add explicit braces
around all those bundles, to see if that makes the assembler happier.

At least that's the, to me, most obvious syntactic difference.

Best regards,
