I thought there was a pragma you could use to make constant data (in
addition to strings) PC-relative, and thus avoid global references.
From memory, it was
#pragma pcrelconstdata on
But I don't think it works for constants with initializers that need
to calculate addresses (e.g. an array of pointers to constant
character strings), as those can only be calculated at run-time.
