I'm porting some old code from the Oasys/Greenhills toolset to
Cygnus/Gnu and have come across a problem.  With Greenhills,
the assembler directive "ds.b" generates no output.  With GASP,
the directive ".RES.B" generates an AS ".space" directive which
takes both 'size' and 'fill' parameters, defaulting to a fill
value of 0x00.

The end result is that my S-record output has data for these
locations and, when these S-records are concatenated with others
for loading into ROM or RAM, they overlap data defined elsewhere.

*Is* there a way to change the location counter by a fixed number
of bytes without generating output?

Can anyone suggest any other ways around this problem?
