But on the other hand, it seems that applications large and complex enough to need a multitasker might also be large and complex enough that you wouldn't want to do them in assembly language in the first place and especially not on a '51.

I have, in a few cases, implemented 'multitasking' by setting all 'regular' interrupts to prt1 and having an otherwise unused ISR at priority 0 running "the priority task"
