I think that this tool length offset should be added/subtracted to
tran->pos.z, as well as tran->pos.x and tran->pos.y should be adjusted
for sin() of pos->a and pos->b multiplied with the tool offset. And
also adjust tran->pos.z for cos() of pos->a and pos->b multiplied with
tool offset.

I have something similar in my robokins, let me know, if You need more
detailed explanation!

Probably yes - postprocessor might do it better, but I think of these
2 reasons to do it in EMC2:
1) the code is readable and understandable by operator and can be
adjusted by hand. If the compensation for tool size is included in X,
Y, Z etc words, then it is not possible to completely read and
understand the code and to adjust it;
2) the whole point of kinematics modules is that You feed in just the
"target" coordinate values, EMC2 will do all the job to calculate
required joint positions to do it.
But the main reason to do it in postprocessor might be the fact, that
implementation of this in EMC2 is yet to be done...
