The question if c68 and ACK-compiled stuff can be intermixed reached me
and this is perhaps of general interest, so I post the answer.

1.) The calling conventions are the same
2.) The compiler scratch registers are the same: th
    (The MINIX version of) c68 uses d0-d1/a0-a2 as scratch registers

Conclusion: No problem to mix C68 and ACK-generated code in any way.

Of course, the objects are compatible since the C68 output is processed
by the ACK assembler etc.
