[gas] Label inside macro

- Subject: [gas] Label inside macro
Hi,
I wrote the following macro and use it 256 times with the
parameter intnr 0...255.
.macro SPRINGBOARD intnr
cmpq $0, (counter_running)
je dont_count # interrupt counter disabled
push $\intnr
call countinterrupt
add $8, %rsp # remove intnr from stack
dont_count:
jmp *(originalhandler + \intnr * 8)
.align 16
.endm
Of course gas complains about the label dont_count:
"Error: symbol `dont_count' is already defined".
Is it possible to make the label only visible inside the macro?
Or is it possible to use the parameter as a label inside the macro?
I tried already "dont_count_\intr:" and "dont_count_\intr :" as a label
but gas shows: "Error: invalid character '(' in mnemonic"
I use "GNU assembler version 2.21 (x86_64-suse-linux) using BFD version
(GNU Binutils; openSUSE 11.4) 2.21".
Kind regards,
Robert
