C64 Expansion Port IO1 and IO2 and PEEK and POKE

Hi all,

I recently got one of the Dorktronic Expansion Port breakouts
(http://www.ebay.com/itm/331840785722), great way to explore the
mysteries of the C64 Expansion Port.

I have an Arduino wired in, triggering interrupts on falling edges on
/IO1 and /IO2 incrementing simple counters (one for each).

It works well, but here's an interesting mystery, that folks on
cbm-hackers might appreciate.

When I do a PEEK from BASIC of the IO space (i.e 57088 for IO2), I get
a single falling edge on /IO2, as expected.

But when I do a POKE (again from BASIC), I get *two* falling edges.
 This is quite repeatable.

That's unexpected, any theories on why this may be?

I don't have a scope unfortunately.  Had a quick browse through the
BASIC disassembly, nothing jumped out.

Ideas?

Cheers,
-Leif
