As I said, the main purpose of gas is to serve GCC. The MASM syntax expression
parser supports -masm=intel.  But we don't pursue MASM compatibility by making
gas itself inconsistent.  At very minimum, a warning should be issued by
default,
which can be controlled by

-moperand-check=[none|error|warning]
