LCF symbol naming conventions

Does anyone to what extent of trouble I will run into if I rename some of the symbols generated in LCFs from codewarrior stationary?
 
ie: ___DATA_RAM to ___Something_Else
 
This is done with the understanding that all source files in the projects using the original symbol name get updated to the new symbol name.
 
I'm more concerned with symbol name usage in codewarrior libraries and 3rd party libs where I don't have the source to rebuild with the new symbol names.
 
Thanks.

These labels are only used in the startup code which copies data (and possibly code) into RAM. So as you say, if you change the names in the linker file, you only need to change the names in the startup code. Libraries are not affected.
