this is my suggestion:
1. find one special char that gas can accept but not part of
C/C++/Fortran (note that it could be lang specific), say this is $
2. use anon$ instead of anon
3. #define this string in config.h or something appropriate
4. replace all hard coded use of "anon"
 then your change is the right fix, not continue previous bad practice.
