For the following C code :

    const unsigned char charset[32] =
      "\x00\x15\x20\x00\x20\x00\x20\x00"
      "\x00\x14\x02\x04\x0a\x04\x0a\x04"
      "\x20\x00\x20\x00\x20\x05\x2a\x1f"
      "\x0a\x04\x0a\x04\x0a\x14\x2a\x3c";

cc65 generates :

    .segment        "RODATA"

    _charset:
	    .byte   $00
	    .res    31,$00

It would appear that cc65 does not support embedded NULs in
string literals. I can't quote chapter and verse in the standard
but I believe this is incorrect. cc65 is certainly the only C
compiler I know that does that.
