Re: [oopic] Re: events again

We are suspecting that the C1.1+ firmware or the compiler that compiles
to the C1.1+ firmware is wrong. My posted event code (that simply flips
the bit) works fine on B2.2+, but acts weird on C1.1+ code. We've found
it in ooPIC C boards, ooPIC R boards and ooPIC S boards. The factory is
looking into where the problem lies.
