[avr-libc-dev] [task #3693] Add new devices: mega 640-1280-1281-2560-2561

[Marek Michalkiewicz]

Follow-up Comment #4, task #3693 (project avr-libc):

According to the datasheet, all these devices (not just 256x - 640/128x too!)
store a 3-byte PC on stack.  This means they all need GCC changes (new
architecture) to be supported.  Byte order of these 3-byte addresses on stack
is not documented (for 2-byte addresses it was found experimentally to be big
endian - only Atmel knows why, AVR is otherwise little endian), and this
matters for the indirect_jump insn (even if we limit ourselves to 16-bit
pointers, an additional zero byte has to be pushed).
