Weelll... in assembly it's a joke -- I don't know how the compilers handle it
but in C you should be able to declare a char variable at a fixed address and
the compiler will figure out that you want to do some byte-wide I/O.

I don't know how you do this in APW/ORCA -- YET -- because I am fighting the
impulse to order it as the official release of 1.1 approaches...
