EGCS: Interrupt Support ?



Since egcs is supposed to a better cross-compiler for embedded systems,
I was wondering whether the "interrupt" keyword or "#pragma interrupt"
is ever going to be supported.  I can not see any reason why it
shouldn't.  It would make life a lot easier than having to write
assembler level stubs.  It would also make writing portable code a lot
easier.

There may be reasons why interrupt support is not a good idea but I do
not know them.  If anyone can shed some light on this matter then I
would appreciate it.

Thanks,
Brendan Simon.
