Another point:
	The routine designated in the vector must return using RTE and
not RTS, as it is handling the intr. 

	Assembly can be imbedded in alcyon C by using the asm
construct like:
	
	asm("rte");

so you don't really need an assembler to force an RTE. I'll try and
dig up some samle Xbtimer code that i once wrote.
