Remember that ADR is syntactic sugar for 'add rN, pc, #const'. If the label
is in another file then the offset to it is not an assemble-time constant and
the instruction can't be generated (currently the GNU tools don't support
immediate relocations).
You can do 'ldr tmp0, =fast_syscall_return' which will be slightly less
efficient but more robust. Otherwise you have to make the symbol definition
visible to the assembler or teach it how to handle the necessary relocations.
I can't offhand think why it would fail when the label is local (assuming it's
in the same section). It might always be an assembler bug -- I think you'll
have to post a more complete example if you still have trouble.
