Re: [avr-gcc-list] Migration from AVR GCC to WinAVR or new Linux avr-gcc

[Goran Pufler]

I use same code for access to the MMC, and also have several NOPs just to wait 
for devices to initialise at the begining - I will try to change this today, 
and see how it will work
 
Thx

I seem to recall hitting this problem a while back. It has to do with
how gas interprets 'rjmp +2'. Turns out that gas treats the '+2' as an
absolute address which is not quite what you expect.

What you should use instead is 'rjmp .+2' to make it a relative
address. Using local labels is essentially the same thing and probably
more technically correct since you avoid magic numbers thus making
your code more readable.

The changes made to gas which changed the behaviour of 'rjmp +2' where
made just before this patch for gcc:
