Just FYI,

Since REGGROUP is bound to a frame and _not_ the raw register cache, it
wouldn't be directly applicable to what Stephane was suggesting.

For an existing example of this unfortunate confusion of layers (and how
it goes wrong) have a look at RAW_REGISTER_BYTES() and how code much of
the code manipulating a frame's cooked/pseudo registers (incorrectly)
uses it.

enjoy,
	Andrew
