Well I was hoping that someone (perhaps Anatoly, or Denis or Marek [if they 
ever read this list anymore]) would know if GCC knows about the "liveness" of 
MCUCR in the register, since it chose the instruction in between the two 
__asm__ statements, i.e. I want to make sure that with the macro, gcc won't do 
something weird like:

        in r24,85-32
/* #APP */
 ;  61 "test.c" 1
        ori  r24,96
 ;  0 "" 2
/* #NOAPP */
        out 85-32,r24
/* #APP */
 ;  61 "test.c" 1
        andi  r25,-33
 ;  0 "" 2
/* #NOAPP */
        out 85-32,r25

where it chooses a different register for the second __asm__ statement and that 
different register has basically invalid data.
