In my experience, that almost always means a bad relative branch target.
It should be the very first thing you look for in such cases.

Also, once in a great while, you'll come up with source that appears to
have nothing wrong with it, and yet it blows up the compiler; simply
changing the order of the last statement or two you added will usually
allow it to compile. Can't remember whether I've seen it in MI, or RPG, or
Java, or some old DOS development tools, but I know I've seen it
somewhere. It happens, without apparent reason, apparently the result of
something somehow overloading the parser.
