Thanks for your offer. I tried it and after a short modification to 
get it as an replacement for the original function I got it to work. 
:-)

And also the resulting code is a little bit smaller than before. But 
it is only 1 word.

But that was not the reason for my initial post. I only wanted to 
ask if it is better to change the inlined function of the available 
header-file to a not inlined function. I got my bootloader to work 
without inline. Sure I have more ideas for the bootloader, but I 
think for the Mega8 it is a good solution, and I am very happy that 
it fit into the 2K space ;-)
