I haven't seen any need for it in avr-gcc, but Metrowerks C for the  
HC12 requires a similar modification to a function definition if it  
is to be reentrant. Metrowerks rewrites and reorders one's code much  
more aggressively than I've seen of avr-gcc.

Would not be surprised if there are gcc targets which require this  
pragma.
