On certain "de00 safe" computers, there is, IIRC. When you write to 
these locations, the data lines won't be driven, but the address lines 
and R/-W line will. As a result, the RAM locations should receive the 
data that was fetched by the VIC-II on the previous cycle.

On the C128, you can cheat with by mapping the stack page to the zero 
page with the MMU, and by writing to $100 and $101.
