Xenix & MASM

It appears that the assembler that is supplied with SCO Xenix (386) cannot
assemble code that is generated by the SCO Xenix C compiler. That is, code
that is generated via "cc -S -c prog.c" will causes masm to generate error
messages about the COMM directive, and some other messages about illegal
ORG arguments, etc. The generated assembly code _will_ compile under
MSDOS, using MASM 5.0+! Unfortunately, I don't think the object code file
generated can be used under XENIX (?).

Is there some information I'm missing here? Any tips will be greatly
appreciated.
