Given the magic which is included in creating binaries that computers
can understand and do s.th. that the binaries want the computer to do,
this is a valid idea.  Or what do you really think is the difference , 
whether an assembler label starts with A,B or C or even L?

  Starting with an 'L' makes it a local label in gas, doesn't it?

Starting with an 'H' makes it a hippo label in gas, doesn't it? [*]

PLEASE stop using the terms hippo and gas together; it fair gives one
the shivers.

  I think we should all try and sneak as many hippo-related references into
as many opensource projects as we can, as a way of kinda-like tagging the
metaphorical walls in their neighbourhood with "Cygwin woz 'ere".  If anyone
manages it, Cc the patch here!
