[C.CC USERS] Servo problem

Hi guys
It turns out that I don't think the code I wrote to control a servo will
work as written. The servo's I'm using ( Hitec HS422's) are controlled
by pulses of between 0.9 and 2.1 milliseconds divided into 180 values
between thoses limits. I've been looking at the code for timers here and
there. My head is now spinning! How does one share the Arduino's one 16
bit timer or is that a problem that has been solved with occam-pi for
this micorcontroller.. I haven't had the patience to read any of the
interrupt driven code and am not really inclined to do so if this is
not really a problem. I see there is a C to occam-pi interface.
The one servo that I tested the code on works half way for the two
values I have available, 0 and 180 degrees. The thing turns to 180
degrees, but doesn't return to 0 degrees for some reason.
