the equ and EQU were working before.. my program would assemble fine.  But
now it won't let me equate labels to other labels e.g.
label2 equ label1+1
It seems like I messed something up with TASM, but I copied the program
from its original zip file and I still got the error.  Has anyone else ever
gotten this error?
