Try this 3 liner:
	section __MERGED,BSS
	dc.l	1
	end
Assemble with:
	asm foo.a

asm will not complain (note that there is a dc in a BSS segment) and
will create a bad object file (it emits the value for the dc after the
HUNK_BSS and proper length).

Workaround: don't make any typos :-)

Share and Enjoy,
