Hi Olin,

Detecting and Adjusting references is one of the most basic things an
optimizer should be capable of doing. This is especially true on a PIC
since there are only 2 instructions capable of directly modifying the
program counter, CALL and GOTO. And there might also be instructions
which add/move/subtract(i've never seen this) to the PCL register.
This should be no trouble detecting.
