If it is x86 specific, it can work, though I'd suggest -o - instead of
-o/dev/stdout and being more picky on where you want to match the jmp,
as you don't want to match it in comments, or say filenames in the asm file
etc.  E.g. require that jmp must be preceeded on the line only by whitespace
and followed by whitespace.
