Hey, this could be nice for those people who write code that changes
itself. If a function is declared volatile, then the compiler could
follow each instruction with a "flush instruction cache" instruction.
Or the compiler could arrange to put the function in a page that is
marked non-cached if the mmu supports that sort of thing.
I can hardly wait for the next obfuscated C code contest...
