Subject: [Unix-jun72] status on disassembler

Here's an example from 'ls'.  It's not ment to be good dis-assembly,
just a rough approximation, but it shows references and how the short
spans get used to assign labels.

ps: I'm not trying to write a disassembler.  This is from a binary code
recompilation hobby project.  It just happened that there was enough
info already in the code to figure out where the labels might go.

I'm happy to share the code if this would be helpful.
