bug in avr-as ?

[rm]

hi, 
        i'm trying to get the following code snippet to work, but
instead of loading the address of label, it just has 0x0.  is this a
bug or am i abusing something?

address@hidden bin]# cat test.s
.org 0x1c
        ldi  r30, lo8(offset)
        ldi  r31, hi8(offset)
offset:
        reti

address@hidden bin]# ./avr-as test.s       
address@hidden bin]# ./avr-objdump -D a.out

a.out:     file format elf32-avr

Disassembly of section .text:

00000000 <offset-0x20>:
        ...
  1c:   e0 e0           ldi     r30, 0x00       ; 0
  1e:   f0 e0           ldi     r31, 0x00       ; 0

00000020 <offset>:
  20:   18 95           reti
Disassembly of section .data:


address@hidden bin]# ./avr-as -v
