Are you sure ? Please take a look at Freescale document titled 
"P1020E/P2020E RDB System Errata".
There's errata CE10, IRQ0 held low. It is fixed in Rev D. Vivek 
Mahajan, who looked at the issue back
in 2009, estimated that problem can be related to missing pull-up on 
IRQ0. This is exactly what is
fixed in Rev D.
