In the case of the macro, you cannot use any label inside because the name will be duplicated. For instance, something stupid like:
LOCO: MACRO #a, #b
jpnz .nothing
ld a, #a
ld a, #b
.nothing:
xor a
ENDMACRO
It will complain .nothing already exists when using the macro twice. I assume that this is not the desired way of working in case we have a loop inside the macro.
My proposal would be to modify how the local labels work. I have seen in some assemblers that they refer to local labels using the previous global, for example: A global named MAN and then a local defined as .GLER. Internally the local label would be MAN.GLER.
This way we would be able to repeat local label names. I have to get more information about other assemblers to check how they behave.
