Changing pressure along the liquid-gas coexistence line of the systems, symmetric or asymmetric, suggests that the phase transition is a continuous one. This is further corroborated from the study of the thermal evolution of the entropy at constant pressure.11 pages (ReVTeX), 4 figures (PS); Submitted to Phys. Rev. CNuclear Theorytext
