Yes, I would have thought that setting FOCn _should_ initiate 
everything an output compare would do.  But the docs definitely say 
it will not make an interrupt.  I guess it will just do whatever is 
programmed for the OCn pin.

I tried setting the OCF1C bit but an interrupt did not occur.  I 
tried the same with OCIE1C set (this enables the output compare 
match interrupt.  And I still did not seem to get it to work.

I would have thought I covered all the operating conditions....
