Consider the following code fragments:

Start:      dc.b 'hello'
End:        CNOP 0,2

and

Start:      dc.b 'hello'
End:
            CNOP 0,2


The same?  Nope.    I think they should be.  I feel that 'End' should be
resolved before the  address is EVEN'd.  This would make it consistent, as if
an op-code had been there instead of 'CNOP 0,2'.  Is this a bug?  Can someone
explain to me why this is not a bug?    Thanks!
