Re: [cc65] Modules with self modifying code

This was in fact explicitly stated for the Lynx and Apple II.

And placing the smc code in the data segment as I suggested wouldn't
cause any surprise even for those: As far as I remember the cc65 docs
even state somewhere that it is the responsibility of the "ROM
creator" to copy the data segment somewhere into RAM on program
startup... All nothing new as there's already some smc code in the C
library placed in the data segment for these very reasons.

I think it rather boils down to soft facts like "clean" and "easy to
maintain / debug".
