The c.asm is an assembler that makes two passes over the source.  This can't
be done when the information it is reading is coming from a pipe which, on
OS9 at least, technically is not a file that can be "rewound".  You can use
the method you describe, but place the output of the optimizer in a tempora
temporary file and run it as usual.  All other phases can use pipes.
