fyi, gcc4.4.0 apparently doesn't like to emit ld/st multiple insns as
much as prior versions did.
NAND bootstraps don't fit, e.g., because of the code density savings
ld/st multiples make: e.g., mpc8313erdb.o is 322 bytes text with gcc
4.2.1 and is now 476 bytes text with gcc4.4...
btw, fixes for upstream gcc should be under way in the next couple of
days.
