Interesting... Do you have RT-Linux or  RTAI  already  running  on  a
MPC8xx? This is something we still have in the queue, but we're stuck
with problems very early in interrupt handling...

Maybe the TQM8xxL modules can be used. You could use the starter  kit
STK8xxL  for  development,  and  maybe use the TQM8xxL module in your
product. See http://www.denx.de/embedded-ppc-en.html for images,  and
let me know if you want a quote on prices.

The starter kit comes with full documentation so thatit's pretty easy
to build your own carrier board where  you  can  plug  in  a  TQM8xxL
module;  the design module itself is not available for free, but this
can be negotiated, too. Just let me know what you need.

Hope this helps,

Wolfgang Denk
