the intro section does note that it's machine dependent, but the section that 
discusses them in detail does not.  if you're scanning headers, you could easily 
miss that caveat.  guess we propagate that note down.

Somchai: you can just use local labels instead -- those should work on every 
target.  see the aforementioned page under "Local Labels".  same goes for the .L 
labels if you want names vs simple "1f" and "1b" names.
