+@section AT&T Syntax bugs
+
+The UnixWare assembler, and probably other AT&T derived ix86 Unix
+assemblers, generate floating point instructions with reversed source
+and destination registers in certain cases. Unfortunately, gcc and
+possibly many other programs use this reversed syntax, so we're stuck
+with it.
+
+For example
+
+@smallexample
+ fsub %st,%st(3)
+@end smallexample
+@noindent
+results in @samp{%st(3)} being updated to @samp{%st - %st(3)} rather
+than the expected @samp{%st(3) - %st}. This happens with all the
+non-commutative arithmetic floating point operations with two register
+operands where the source register is @samp{%st} and the destination
+register is @samp{%st(i)}.
