  Among other good points made by Tim Meekings, you need to get the
  return address off of the stack, and save it somewhere.  Easier
  to use stack addressing as the Orca/C manual demonstrates, though.
  ie tsc phd tcd and ending with pld.  And yes, I know that it is
  truly direct page addressing and not 'stack,s' addressing.
