If you're going to touch that code at all, it would be better to just
defer the choosing of the name until the string is actually output
during final; make the name something like '<pic offset>', and
recognize that string during ASM_OUTPUT_*.  This code is already
horribly ugly and broken.

You can't keep the 'strings' in the hash table, because there is only
one; the entire design of the function relies on there being one
string that it changes.  Did I mention that it was horribly ugly and
broken?
