I think I have found a bug in Mr. Gibbs (v 2.42) macro assembler. Consider:

          EVEN
Label1\@  dc.b 'hello'
Label2\@  CNOP 0,2
---and----
          EVEN
Label1\@  dc.b 'hello'
Label2\@
          CNOP 0,2



Label2\@ in the first example gets the value of the address AFTER the address
is EVEN'ed.  The second example works properly, Label2\@ gets the value BEFORE
the address is EVEN'ed.    Is this a bug?
