I don't think so. There is no difference between explict code and macro
generated code. Only if the main programm links to the code, the code is
actual included.

STM32 has some shared interrupts, where I don't have any idea yet how make
it to work with NutRegisterIrqHandler(). These IRQ are no "basic" ones, like
USART, so probably I can live with STM32 specific registration code, or
could even use the IRQs directly. But a generalized solution would be
fine. Maybe you approach could help for that too. On the short run the
fastest approach is if the Cortex people (you and me) decide for the macro .
