This behaviour would surprise me a bit, given that the datasheet
chapter about interrupt latency explicitly mentions the increased
latency when the interrupt arrives while a multiword instruction is
currently being executed.

I'd be interested in setting up a test setup that experimentally
verifies this behaviour, as the assumption the next instruction will
still be executed without being interrupted is quite crucial to the
toolchain.

Never trust an operating system you don't have sources for. ;-)
