Correct, that's how it is currently implemented. The whole thing was rather
complex, that might be the reason why I didn't think it out.

It should be possible to delay the checks that are currently in the assembler
until the link stage. There's a lot of other things to do so I cannot promise
when this will happen. What you can try until then is something like

        .export         BANK_FOO = .BANK (foo)

from within the module that contains foo, and then instead of

> .import foo
> .byte <.bank( foo )

use

        .import BANK_FOO
        .byte   <BANK_FOO

I know it's not really the same, but ... see above.

Sorry for the inconvenience.

Regards
