Confirmed bug.  I dunno where the bug is coming from, or how to fix
it...yet.

I think the linker is ignoring the '+12' in this asm:

movb $33,_hwstr1+12

ld sees "_hwstr1" in the .o and blindly plunks in the address (via
__imp__hwstr1 and the auto-import magic) *without* adding the 12.  I'll
dig into this -- unless Paul beats me to it. Paul?  Paauulll?
