ProDOS keeps the start address and length as metadata, while cc65 (like
DOS) prepends it. AppleCommander has an option to sort it out [1].
Here's an excerpt from my Makefile:
PI = pi
${PI}: ${PI}.c
cl65 --static-locals -O -t apple2enh ${PI}.c
ac -d p1.po ${PI}
ac -cc65 p1.po ${PI} bin < ${PI}

I get the same thing with %s, but %ju works. Of course, it only takes a
few seconds with Sweet16! :-)
