Ok, in this case there was quite specific problem in my question, but
thread went a bit off-topic.
Sdcc itself was not the root of a problem, code itself works fine. I
do not think I will anytime soon get to the limitations of sdcc.

My aims? Probably a bit of all mentioned - spend my free time using
things I already have or can use for free, and learning things along
the way. Much better than watching TV, even if nothing particularily
usefull comes out.
