+            { Emit a branch, which is PIC-safe, but limited to 8 MByte range on SPARC.
+              Since interface wrappers are always located in the same unit with
+              their target methods, this limit applies (roughly) to code size of single
+              unit, not to entire program. It looks like a reasonable tradeoff.
+              If distance limit is ever exceeded, consider changing high-level compiler
+              logic to emit wrappers near target methods, not at the end of unit. }
