Good examples are hard to find. One approach is to write C
code and then have a peek at what GCC translates it into.
A trivial example might be a file called return1234plus.c
whose entire contents are this:
unsigned long int
return1234plus( unsigned long int more )

GCC has supported inline assembler on some

So that I don't have to answer the question a bunch of times
privately, I'll mention my interest in assembly.
There is no specific problem that I can't address with some other
language. I'm not trying to optimize the hell out of some piece of
code.

I used to have a problem like that, when I was running a buggy X server.
