We did talk about looking at using some work Ben did in ppc64 with OF

from him on it lately.

The firmware interface on the ppc32 embedded side is some what broken 
in my mind.

The binary structure which changes every few weeks and which is shared
between the bootloader and the kernel? Yeah, "somewhat broken" is one
way of putting it :)

The ARM kernel does it a lot better with tag,value pairs.
