As far as I remember, C++ was different: you had (and still may have) to
compile with POINTER_SIZE=64 to run the code from P2. Otherwise you may
experience an unexpected ACCVIO. No, the linker doesn't check this: you
say move code to P2 and the linker moves it. And yes, linker generated
code is the same, as well.
