Yes, in Acorn/objasm and ARM Ltd's assembler documentation, only ":LNOT:"
(with 2nd column) is mentioned, not ":LNOT". I know ":LNOT" gets accepted
by objasm and to me it looks like a bug and decided not implement this.
There were several similar instances in Castle's RO sources which all got
corrected when AsAsm was tested.
