The rominit.S code of VxWorks is different software, so different
rules may apply. I have no idea when and where they set up a stack.

There is no problem in U-Boot. You are just doing things that make no
sense.
And no, as long as you don;t understand why IMMR must be mapped at
0xF0000000 or above you are not permitted to change it.

Please read the documentation that comes with the GNU Linker.

For MPC8xx based systems there is the BDM4GDB project at sourceforge;
a BDM4GDB parallel port adapter costs just 49.95 Euro.

Use "gcc -S" to translate your C code and try to nderstand the
generated output.

Real computer scientists despise the idea of actual hardware. Hard-
ware has limitations, software doesn't. It's a real shame that Turing
machines are so poor at I/O.
