  1. The original error message is "Line too long". If you don't see a line
  2. that is too long, then you probably hit a Masm bug.
  3. There is a long-standing bug in Masm 6.11 which generates error A2039
  4. for no reason. It's a bug in the parser that they cannot repro easily
  5. (but of course, we can repro it just fine). The workaround is to
  6. insert comments and/or blank lines before the line where the parser
  7. eventually chokes.
  8. This is the reason for all the comments you see in source code that read
  9. ; Add unnecessary comment for MASM bug.
  10. ; This comment line works around a masm bug.
  11. ; This is a bogus comment because MASM is stupid and currently will
  12. ; not assemble this file without it.
  13. ; comment for masm 6.11 cause its a butthead
  14. ; comment to make masm happy
  15. You can use one of the above, or make up one of your own. Be creative!
