Not at all.  This is old absolute mode thinking.  RES has the extra checks
such that it is perfectly fine, even desirable, to have variable definitions
in different places.  Regardless of how many places variables are defined
with RES, they are still all guaranteed not to overlap and not to overflow a
linker memory region.

Local variables of a module should be defined in that module.  Putting all
local variable definitions in a central place is really bad programming
practise.
