4) SFR16 is the death of many efforts ... some compilers require SFR16 to be to adjecent SFRs ...

I think the documentation for this (which must include the comments in the file) needs to be very clear indeed about what it does and does not do:

  • It just makes the Syntax portable;

  • It does not make the entire code portable!

    The handling of SFR16, as Erik notes, is just one area where you can get compatible syntax but incompatible code.

    The other key areas would be in calling conventions and internal data representation.

    Those are the ones that spring to my mind at the moment - no doubt there are others...
