This is also probably the source of your slowdown when running
off of BDM.

Also make sure the watchdog is disabled (Dan's code does this, I think).

If anyone is interested, I can post the startup file I use for
running from flash on the FADS board using Metrowerks.  I finally
figured out a way that I can run the same flash image standalone,
and through MPC8bug.
