You made me doubt for a moment. :-) Thanks for the suspiciousness.

What happens if a pin was previously configured as input? Does our
write to the data register survive? For MPC8xxx GPIO controllers
it does. And randomly taken QE spec says:

  A write to CPDAT is latched, and if the corresponding CPDIR
  bits have configured the port pin as an output, the latched
  value is driven onto the respective pin. However, if the
  corresponding CPDIR bits have configured the port pin as an
  input, the latched value is prevented from reaching the pin.

I guess we're safe, but Michael, could you actually test it
(if not already)?

Thanks!
