Are you proposing adding this new bss fixup code to this release, or rolling it into the next release along with Jocke's addition of relocation code written in C-code? Logically it'd be much easier to add this new bss fixup logic to Jocke's 1 C-code function instead of 15 assembly files, but then we'd have to have a temporary 85xx workaround just for this release (which is fine by me).
