[texhax] \marginpars on left

I tried the technique that Donald Arsenau suggested, namely
\makeatletter
\@mparswitchfalse
\makeatother
\newcommand\xlabel[1]{\marginpar[#1]{}\label{#1}}

Unfortunately, the effect is to turn off \marginpar entirely.  If I 
replace the definition of \xlabel by
\newcommand\xlabel[1]{\marginpar{#1}\label{#1}}
(dropping the optional argument) I get all the labels on the right.  I 
guess I can live with that.
