There are options here...

For the benefit of the mailing list: they are tied into how the FPGA
configuration is loaded, and the
particular FPGA family.  By far the most portable/generic option is to
simply use an initialized BRAM for this.

David: If you would like to have a discussion regarding particular
design tradeoffs, I'd be happy to, but since I doubt there is anyone on
this list who is interested in the vagaries of FPGA configuration
methods, I suggest we have the discussion privately.
