This would have given an "arithmetic overflow in constant expression"
warning, not an error.

Fixup overflow errors usualy occur when you are using pointers, and try to
access a variable in the wrong bank for the specified pointer e.g.:

bank1 char b1var;
bank2 char b2var;

bank1 char *b1pntr;


b1pntr = &b1var;                // ok

b1pntr = &b2var;                // fixup overflow.
