I see the problem, but would probably prefer that an assembler handle
these references between sections. From my personal point of view, the
stuff I write with references outside the current section can be full
addressing mode, and if I am really trying to shave cycles on a particular
program, I can then tweak the sections to make them all short addresses. To
me, this beats typing a lot of ENTRY ops. Then again, I am only one person,
and others may disagree, so hang on before you jump into any major
changes.
