I've wondered the same :D

It's a general STFLE function and if I put it into vsie.c I'm not sure
that, if the same functionality was required somewhere else, it would be
found and moved to a common location.
I was also somewhat resistant to calling a double underscore function from
vsie.c. Of course I could implement it with my own inline asm...
The way I did it seemed nicest, but if someone else has a strong opinion
I'll defer to that.
