Thanks for your answer.

This compiler will choose some identifiers for desired address labels
in the generated assembler source code.

* Do you care which naming patterns can be applied there?

* I observed that a renumbering of such labels can happen. This has got some
  “special effects” if you would like to compare small changes in source files
  from the other supported programming languages by a tool like "diff".
