And, you should declare the pointer as volatile:
volatile long *SSA...
Otherwise, the optimizer might get you on some compilers. If you test a
bit, etc. in a loop you may find that the generated code only reads the
register once.

Also make sure you get the type right. The code above assumes SSA is a 4
