AVR32 will not use the same inline assembler. The error message
suggests the constraints for the asm operands are too restrictive in
some way, or it may be the compiler isn't doing a great job of
register allocation. Try a newer/older compiler, adjust the
constraints or see if asm optimizations can be selectively disabled.
