Which stepper is driven by which G-code Axis name is something that it
easily configured in the HAL config.
For example the Z-axis motor on my lathe becomes the X-axis motor when
I put the (dual-purpose) machine into milling machine mode.

It _sounds_ like you are talking about a limitation in the CAM
software, though, so it is possible that the A/X confusion is all
invisible after the CAM stage.
