Actually, you can do that -- look at the STL implementation for
BitVector<bool>.

This is similar to the STL implementation using a helper class for the
assignments. All you need to do is pass a reference to the port object
into the bit when you create it (in the subscript opererator), and then
the helper object calls members on the Port object when you access the
value (via cast operators) or assign the value (via the assignment operator).

I don't think you need to use asm - the compiler will use those
instructions. Just do it in C++:
value|=(1<<bit) to set
value&= ~(1<<bit) to clear
One problem to consider is that any of these bit manipulation operations
do a read-modify-write. That is ok for the P6DR, but not for P6DDR
(which is write-only) or many other on-chip registers it is not. For those,
you have to keep a shadow copy in RAM, modify the RAM copy, and then copy
that to the register.
