So, have you had time to look at all of this yet?

Mainly because no one with the indepth knowledge of 8xx (*hint*hint* :))
has gone and fixed the very low level issues on 8xx which need to be
fixed, such as some MM thing or another from 2.5.5/2.5.10 timeframe and
the exception handling stuff ne3ds a look at, at a minimum based on what
Paul has done for 'classic' and what Paul and/or David and others have
done for 40x.  At which point the more trivial things like fixing up
drivers can happen. :)
