Code:
    jne exit_addr
@after_jmp_on_fail:

. . .

exit_addr = 0
rept 256 addr:$100
{
  if addr >= @after_jmp_on_fail-128 & addr <= @after_jmp_on_fail+127
    load code_byte byte from addr
    if code_byte = $C3 & exit_addr = 0
      exit_addr = addr
    end if
  end if ; addr...
}
assert exit_addr <> 0    
error: symbol 'exit_addr' out of scope.

What's wrong?

1)
Code:
if (code_byte = $C3 | code_byte = $C2) & exit_addr = 0
...    
The retn command can be not only with the code $C3, but also $C2 XX XX
2) It is possible to refer to variables declared somewhere ahead only when it is assigned a value only once
Code:
    jne exit_addr_value ; forward reference
@after_jmp_on_fail:

. . .

exit_addr = 0
rept 256 addr:$100
{
  if addr >= @after_jmp_on_fail-128 & addr <= @after_jmp_on_fail+127
    load code_byte byte from addr
    if code_byte = $C3 & exit_addr = 0
      exit_addr = addr
    end if
  end if ; addr...
}
assert exit_addr <> 0
exit_addr_value = exit_addr ; only once
