Text::CSV_XS is your special friend, if you can rely on the operand list
being reasonably well-formed.

Alternatively you might want to take a look at CPU::Z80::Assembler.
Paulo Custodio ripped out my crappy regex-based parser and replaced it
with one that doesn't suck, so you may be able to re-use bits of that.
The DEFM etc pseudo-instructions take arbitrarily long lists of args.
