A townhouse built in 1980 has outlets in two bathrooms sharing a circuit
with an outdoor receptacle. The GFCI is in the outdoor receptacle, so
if you trip it in the bathroom you have to go outside to reset.

Does this meet codes, either in 1980 or currently (2008 NEC)? It seems
a bit ridiculous to have to go outside, but am interested in the
legal/safety standpoint.
