Yes right. I first thought you wanted to override the functions on a 
per-function basis:

#ifndef flash_write8
# define flash_write8(value, addr)     __raw_writeb(value, addr)
#endif
#ifndef flash_write16
# define flash_write16(value, addr)     __raw_writew(value, addr)
#endif
...

OK, I'll submit a new patch version later today.

Thanks.
