Ooh. That's an oversight on my part; yes, the firmware now looks to
address 0x4F00 for all the 328-based platforms. That would do it.

The next update will fix that, thus overwriting your local fix.
However, it will overwrite it with exactly the same thing.

Woot. I do that for days at a time. Kills my productivity.

It's a compile-time constant for the firmware. That is, the
interpreter, at start, must know where to look for the bytecode. There
are other things we could do, but they all have tradeoffs. If you have
thoughts/reasons for wanting it to be different, do say so. However,
that discussion might be better on the developer's list (developers@).
