We just had a long discussion about this.  Don't use EQU to define symbols
that are intended to be variables in RAM.  Use RES instead.

In absolute mode I guess the debugger assumes all symbols could be RAM
addresses and allows you to add them to the watch window.  In relocatable
mode there is RES specifically for the purpose of creating variables, so the
debugger known that EQU symbols aren't the addresses of variables.
