I'm just explaining why data need to go at nonzero offset. Nothing to see here, move on ;-). > It sounds like you are running in real mode with code stored at some > (unknown?) location in memory.

See arch/x86/kernel/acpi/realmode/wakeup.S (the version that was sent to the list). No problem there, but table stored at nonzero offset. Short jump at the beggining of table would fix it (ugly).
