Actually, it's gcc that doesn't like that. The assembler works fine:

Script started on Tue Feb 25 22:32:13 2003
# cat xxx.S
foo:	xorl	%eax,%eax	# Don't do this!
	ret
# gcc -c -o xxx.o xxx.S
xxx.S:4: unterminated character constant
# as -o xxx.o xxx.S
# exit
exit
Script done on Tue Feb 25 22:35:07 2003

Cheers,
