%0 could be an address that already has a displacement, for example
"32(%esp)".  In that case "-16%0" becomes "-1632(%esp) which is totally
wrong, while "-16+%0" becomes "-16+32(%esp)" which is correct.  The problem
is that you don't know if there will be a displacement or not so you can't
get the syntax correct.  gas normally gives a warning but assembles
"-16+(%eax)" into the desired instruction, so that's the form used.
