Grumble. I brought this up during the original development, but was
assured that it would work fine per the C language spec. I'll have to
revisit that discussion and report back.

Also, I noticed you merged F01 header into F01. That's going to have to
be backed out, because F05, F34, and F54 are also interested in the F01
stuff, as is the (proposed) F01 diagnostic module. We just aren't
submitting that code right now in order to keep the code down to a
managable size.
