JTAG debuggers for Motorola 8xx/82xx/85xx

[Mark Chambers]

Thanks for this information Wolfgang.  We've been trying to decide between
5200 and an 8xxx for a project and have gotten the distinct feeling that
5200 is somehow not from the same part of the company as 8xxx, and not
supported in the same way.  Do you know, do the 82xx or 85xx processors have
similar restrictions?
