The only problem with that is that you never know the exact
translation to the Microchip instr. set, do you? For example that DJNZ
at least 2 instructions (DECFSZ + GOTO), and not sure if they handle
banks and pages? Or if they do how?

In my opinion it would be better off with a C compiler if you need to
jump in between different MCUs.
