Yup. Note that inline assembler isn't C. :-)   I was thinking more of 
Ada, which actually has language constructs for hooking and invoking 
interrupts, for example. You can declare a procedure as one that gets 
executed by an interrupt at a certain priority, and where it gets its 
arguments from, and so on.

     It's not feature creep if you put it
     at the end and adjust the release date.
