This syntax is documented in the gcc source code. http://gcc.gnu.org/viewcvs/trunk/gcc/config/i386/i386.c?revision=182191&view=markup

13495 	/* Print the name of register X to FILE based on its machine mode and number.
13496 	If CODE is 'w', pretend the mode is HImode.
13497 	If CODE is 'b', pretend the mode is QImode.
13498 	If CODE is 'k', pretend the mode is SImode.
13499 	If CODE is 'q', pretend the mode is DImode.
13500 	If CODE is 'x', pretend the mode is V4SFmode.
13501 	If CODE is 't', pretend the mode is V8SFmode.
13502 	If CODE is 'h', pretend the reg is the 'high' byte register.
13503 	If CODE is 'y', print "st(0)" instead of "st", if the reg is stack op.
13504 	If CODE is 'd', duplicate the operand for AVX instruction.
13505 	*/

This syntax was added when gcc supported x86_64. So older version is not an issue. 

Clang should support it too, otherwise it is not compatible with gcc, and it will 
not be able build glibc which as this syntax in it's code.


Thanks,
