What do these lines look like?  Are they just "lods", "stos", or do they 
specify size (e.g. "lodsw", "stosd").  Yasm requires the latter.

I'm not sure how you're getting that exact message.  I can't find it in 
any of the error messages yasm generates.  Can you show a piece of the 
code and yasm's error output for this case?
