Hi, 
There is a gnu info file delineating the difference between at&t asm and
gnu's gas. Just browse around in a gnu ftp directory and look around
for documentation on gas.

You can also learn a lot by just looking at the assembly output which
gcc generates.

Since, hackers is now flooded with deep philophical questions ,  
I  vote for starting a new mailing list:
hackers-technical@freeBSD.org 8)
