IMHO I would avoid ever cross-naming, as old tutorials and example code might 
then have incorrect definitions of the INTERRUPT() macro. However breaking 
the INTERRUPT macro would either force the user to RTFM or post a "HELLPPP" 
on AVRFreaks/ avr-gcc-list.

I agree with the idea of removing INTERRUPT macro eventually due to somewhat 
confusing name, as well as putting all interrupt related macros in one file.
