[avr-libc-dev] Is eeprom_write_byte supporting the new bitwise eeprom write feature of new devices?

[Selbst]

Hi,

i just read about the more or less new feature of the newer avr devices that 
allows more 
efficient eeprom write operations. Basically it allows to save some erase 
cycles if bits only 
need to be set but none erased:

Are the current avr-libc functions using this eeprom write scheme if available? 

Or if not are they at least checking if the byte is unchanged and need no write 
at all?

regards and many thanks for the great work on avr-libc
