Eureka!  I think I understand how to do this now.

1) Palm code in a prc must be location independent.  As a corollary, it must
be "raw" instructions and data without any "loader" information.

2) Given that, I can easily "seperate" parts of an app and tuck a function
or two into a PDB.  For some reason, I didn't understand that "code
splitting" was literally correct.

I wrote compilers/linkers/debuggers in a former life so I'm very comfortable
grunging in the bits.  I just don't know the Palm OS, yet.
