Judging from the response I got when I asked the original authors about the improvements I made to the assembler for that port, I think development on it has stopped. That's a shame, because the current pseudo-register scheme the 6811 backend uses ends up being rather inefficient. Good thing the optimizer is pretty good :-) --Ken
