I believe that additional patches are required for CodeWarrior to
work 
properly (e.g., assembly start up).  I think the patches should come 
from Freescale.  For whatever reason, they include them in their SDK, 
but haven't submitted them for inclusion in the mainline.

As a developer on Freescale Power products, I would like to see 
Freescale offer up a CodeWarrior patch set, so I don't have to manage 
the patches myself when working outside the SDK (i.e., on a more
recent 
kernel).

Such patches would have a hard time getting upstream considering that
codewarrior is a commercial product.

It's not really about CodeWarrior -- it's needed for any external debug
on these chips.

Those chips are commercial products too, BTW. :-)
