mspgcc interrupts are handled that way.

Quoting from the mspgcc docs ....

To make a routine an interrupt service routine, define it as follows:

interrupt (INTERRUPT_VECTOR) IntServiceRoutine(void)
{
   /* Any normal C code */
}

where "INTERRUPT_VECTOR" is replaced with the name of the actual
vector to be serviced. Definitions for these may be found in the
header files. The generated code will save any registers used within
the interrupt routine, and use the "RETI", rather than the usual "RET"
instruction, to exit from the routine. The vector table will
automatically point to the routine. Further interrupt related
attributes are also recognised:

interrupt (INTERRUPT_VECTOR) [wakeup, enablenested] IntServiceRoutine(void)
{
   /* Any normal C code */
}

The "wakeup" attribute makes the compiler alway force exit from any
low power modes that may be in force at exit from the routine. See
later for ways to gain greater control of the lower power modes.
"enablenested" causes an interrupt enable instruction to be inserted
before the function prologue. This allows other higher priority
interrupts to be serviced while handling the current one. Use this
feature with care if you use it in conjunction with "wakeup"!
