How we handled the comments on the asm to asm translation was put the
whole sourceline into in our case a C statement // comment with enough
parsing information to tie it as well to the generated code. A filter
(In our case a compiler pragma) reprocessed the listing line. It could
have been done with a small post processing program quite easily.


It proved quite workable.
