	Do you convert BSR to BSR.S?  JSR to BSR(.S) might be useful when
you plan to link with SMALLCODE, also.

	ADD.L	#<16 bit number>,An should be converted to ADD.W.  Ditto
for SUB, etc.

	Forward optimization is REAL nice.  I HATE to have to sprinkle .S's
into my code, then remove the ones that fail!
