Mike,

Having done some fine-reading on the header file "arlut_fifo_interface_regs.h" and its macro's followed by a quick simulation I think I finally can contribute constructively to your fifo interface.

The REGISTER_BIT macro should read 

#define REGISTER_BIT(regName, bitName, bitNum) 
    ARLUT_FIFO_INTERFACE_##regName##_##bitName##_OFST =   bitNum, 
    ARLUT_FIFO_INTERFACE_##regName##_##bitName##_MSK = (1 << 
  ARLUT_FIFO_INTERFACE_##regName##_##bitName##_OFST)

The original one never takes account of the bitNum parameter (end of second line).
