So I guess this is sort of my question:

You cast a variable as "volatile" when it could possibly change in an
interrupt.  This forces the compiler to read it from RAM whenever it's
used, and not use a register to store it.

Is there a corresponding "cast" or anything that would force the compiler
to _cli & _sei around any change in a variable?  Or is it up to my
(forgetful) self?  Thanks.

It's up to you. Sorry. :-(
