This is AVR, and he is trying to use r16.  According to
function_arg_regno_p() in avr.c, that register can be used to pass
parameters to functions.  gcc can't handle declaring a register used
for parameter passing as fixed.

Trying to do that is an implicit ABI change anyhow.  Maybe gcc should
warn about this, but it doesn't.
