This is a generic solution for doing labels (forward and backward
references) in an assembler program.

- Who to use local labels:

Example:

Label 10pause
		10 # ldy,
	1 $:	dey,
		1 $ bne,
		rts,
End-Label

"n $:" defines an address reference. "n $" returns the address of the
reference defined with "n $:".

- How to embed local labels in your assembler:

At the moment all references are forward references, meaning,
all references are resolved at the end of the definition.

The Simple Resolver

The only special thing is how a label is resolved. Numref executes
therefor a resolver-word, example for a two byte opcode with the second
byte as branch-offset:

: doresovle ( iaddr -- )
  dup ref-addr @ - swap 1+ X c! ;

iaddr is the address of the instruction with the reference that must
be resolved. The destination address of the reference is stored at ref-addr.

The resolver must be registered bye "' doresolve TO std-resolve". This is 
not a defered word!

Complex Resolving

To support different cpu-instruction with different operand formats it is
possible to find out the type of opcode bye accessing the targets' memory
in doresolve. This works for very simple processors, e.g. for 6502 it is
very easy to find out whether we have a 2-byte absolute address or a 1-byte
relative address.

If this method is to difficult, it is possible to store additional
information in the resolve structure.

When assembling an opcode you should find out whether the address is a
reference and then  store the xt of a special
resolver word in the resolve structure by "ref-resolver !", or store some
additional data in the resolve structure by "ref-data !", if one data field
is not enough allocate memory and use ref-data as pointer to it.

- Internal strucutre:

There is a heap buffer to store the references.
The structure of one entry is:

 1 cell		ref-link
 1 cell		ref-flag	\ mixture of tag-number
				\ and tag type
 1 cell		ref-resolver	\ xt of resolver
 1 cell		ref-addr	\ pointer to destination or on reference
				\ instruction
				\ (start of the instruction)
 1 cell		ref-data	\ additional information for resolver
