Upon testing, using .set doesn't work, which is what I expected --
glad I'm not losing my nut. `.set x, 0' creates a symbol local to the
current section. So, `.set x, 0; rjmp x' is equivalent to `rjmp 0',
which jumps to the beginning of the section, not the absolute address
0. So, back to my original question...

Is there a way in source code to use the rjmp instruction to jump to
an absolute address (not relative to the section offset) without using
a linker option or a linker script?
