It might. Really I'd like Angelo to see if it still works. Hopefully
it doesn't break anything or it's just one or two things that need to
be fixed to make it work again.
In Linux the range for the in-chip registers uses the current
behaviour and everything else uses the "correct" behaviour. I think we
want to avoid having that hack if possible.

Yeah, but then we have to fix it again if a coldfire virt machine
happens. If it breaks coldfire so badly it's difficult to fix I'll
split them.

Yep. I forgot that there is actually a coldfire machine in qemu so I
will build and test this on that a bit later.

Cheers,
