I haven't used this, so please verify first, but checking the XC8 manual,
there are a couple options- you can use:

eeprom char regNumber[10] =3D "A93213";

Also, section 5.5.5.2 of the XC8 manual describes a macro:

#include <xc.h>
__EEPROM_DATA(0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7);

The difference being that this is just inserting the data into the .hex
file used to program the part- it isn't associated with a variable.
