     Compiler error C2427
 
     'identifier' : jump referencing label is out of range
 
     A branch to the specified label is farther than allowed.
 
     For example, if the following causes this error:
 
                  jz label1
                  inc AX
                  ∙ ∙ ∙
          label1: inc CX
 
     then this error can be corrected by either removing excess code
     between the branch and the label or inverting the jump, as in
 
                  jnz label2
                  jmp label1
          label2: inc AX
                  ∙ ∙ ∙
          label1: inc CX
