In the case of the 16C71, the simulator does not correctly model the
behavior of the page switching bit.

For example, if you address register 0x85 on the simulator, you get
access to the TRISA a register.  On the real chip, you have to first
set the RP1 and RP0 flags first to get to the TRISA register.

This 'bug' / feature cost me a few days when I was first programming,
the program ran fine on the simulator, but did not run on the chip.
It turns out that I had forgotten to set the page bits correctly.
