Highly likely, you can not do I/O read/write in 8-bit operations on AVR32,
only 32-bit operations are supported. If you do 8-bit or 16-bit operations
you will read and write garbage data.

I still use my board every now and then, and there are that odd request every
now and then.

Hmm, does AVR32 even have this feature?

These functions will not fly on AVR32. I would even assume some AT91 devices
would struggle with this. IIRC the internal bus architecture is similar.
