Re: [avr-libc-dev] [bug #18964] USART definitions *wrong* in iocanxx.h

In general, I agree with your statement, though in this case, I'd
probably have made an exception.  The iocanxxx.h file already contain
SIG_* vector names, but for the USART, it only contains the older (and
actually wrong) SIG_UART_* ones rather than SIG_USART_*.  I'd
personally have made it match the ATmega128 definitions (where it has
once been derived from).

I fully agree though about new devices: they simply won't get any
SIG_* vector names anymore at all, as there's no historical precedence
to take care of.
