Yes, it's currently broken. It should probably be disabled unless someone 
cares sufficiently to fix it, and can show that it's actually an advantage to 
disable interrupts in return for the (probably minimal) speedup.

The unlock addresses are set with that fact taken into consideration. The 
reason is that some devices with DEVICETYPE_16 need unlock addresses which 
are odd, for which the 'multiply by two' doesn't help us much :)
