Hm... I'm using NASM 2.03.01, and I don't see this problem, yet I don't 
see anything obvious between NASM 2.02 and 2.03.01.

On the other hand, if -pre10 works and -pre11 doesn't, there isn't much 
else that could be wrong.  Let me assemble with 2.02 and compare the 
assembly outputs to see if there are any hints there.
