By default it seems that asm mode recognizes MASM style comments
(starting with ;), but not gas style comments (starting with #). A
little weird for a GNU program running on Linux...
Anyway, according to asm modes docs:
http://www.phys.ufl.edu/docs/emacs/emacs_299.html
asm-comment-char can be set. So I added this to my .emacs:
(set 'asm-comment-char "#")
This makes ; stop highlighting like a comment, but doesn't make # do
anything. Am I doing anything obviously wrong? Is there some mode file
somewhere that actually handles the GNU assembler syntax?

(setq asm-comment-char ?#)
It think it has to be a character (not a string).

(setq asm-comment-char ?\#)
Better escape the lisp comment char.

There is also a gas mode http://www.hczim.de/software/gas-mode.html
