I haven't looked at the problem very closely. The problem seems to be
how expressions like a - b are evaluated. When a and b are known
when a - b is evaluated, it is not a problem. But for

--1.s-
call a-b
------

--2.s-
call a-b
a:
------

--3.s-
call a-b
b:
------

--a.s-
call a-b
a:
b:
------

a and b are unknown at the end. My question is if a and b have to
be defined locally for experessions like a - b. If not, I am kind of
curious how they can be used.
