Hi Scott,
It would be useful to see a more complete C snippet. IIRC, I've seen
this before where the __asm("":DS()) was not declared outside of the
main function.

I have a Metal C program where I am trying to add some static data via an

When I remove my #pragmas for the prologs and epilogs of the various routines
in the module, I get very similar code, but it assembles cleanly (I renamed the
program for expediency):

The snippets are exactly the same, except for the labeling difference.
Any thoughts as to what I could have done in either/both of my prologs and
epilogs which would perturb the assembler to cause this error.
I've cross-posted this to StackOverflow, as well, if you want to see it in a
better format:
