 5.1 Labels
 ==========
 
 A "label" is written as a symbol immediately followed by a colon `:'.
 The symbol then represents the current value of the active location
 counter, and is, for example, a suitable instruction operand.  You are
 warned if you use the same symbol to represent two different locations:
 the first definition overrides any other definitions.
 
    On the HPPA, the usual form for a label need not be immediately
 followed by a colon, but instead must start in column zero.  Only one
 label may be defined on a single line.  To work around this, the HPPA
 version of `as' also provides a special directive `.label' for defining
 labels more flexibly.
