I really don't see what the big deal is with wanting to write interrupt 
handlers in C++. Why can't they just be a global C function? An interrupt 
is a global resource, and there are a very small number of them 
available, so why try to implement them as class member functions? I 
think you are just making life difficult for yourself :-)
