I checked on it, and I think what happened was the support guy didn't look
hard enough to see there was an actual bug, and Bob was too polite to
ask him to look again. Anyway, it's been interesting - all the
suggestions and comments from various people have been noted, and so far
the improvements have been:

1) optimizer doesn't break this code example any more;
2) code generator will use decfsz for equivalent C code
3) bank bit settings are optimized out of the loop
4) suggestion for "hands-off" flag is being looked at to implement.

Cheers, Clyde
