OK, missed the subtlety of what you were talking about - my fault for
multitasking, ironically. The use of "kernel" here is a little different to
what I thought we were talking about before, not that thats an excuse, but
you are quite right.

However, having pointed that out, any suggestions about how you'd use
registers to pass information between processes?
