I've never seen code which would do that, and it was not suggested by any
tutorial I ever saw. I'd expect any machine to break on all kinds of software
if it required this. The only thing I remember being warned about is writing
the index and the data register at the same time using outw, because that
would write both registers at the same time on 16-bit-cards.
And we use that, and have been for 15 years. I haven't seen any screams
of pain about it.
