Sorry, my previous post didn't explain why this is the case. PCL can't
ever be 256; it's only an 8-bit register. The "L" indicactes its the
low byte of the target address. Any overflow from computing its value
must be put up into PCLATH to jump to the correct address, i.e the
address in the correct page.
