It works fine with x86 and plenty of other architectures.

You may also find the ".subsection" directive useful, if all you need
is for some instructions to be out of line.  It will put the code in a
separate subsection at the end of the same section in the object file,
so the offset can be calculated at assembly time instead of link time.
