Good to hear!

I guess a starting point could be Nicolas patch for this to OpenOCD:

  http://lists.berlios.de/pipermail/openocd-development/2009-May/006413.html

and/or the Reed-Solomon library in the Linux kernel,
lib/reed_solomon/{reed_solomon.c, decode_rs.c, encode_rs.c} (I guess
this will be needed to perform error correction and decoding as well).
