At the time it seemed like the right way to handle the VSA binary distribution. We posted a binary blob that would just work when cat'd on to a Geode platform ROM. It was a painful to do by hand... With the acceptance of buildrom and the new build configuration in v3, it seems as though we should change. The user/buildtool will have to handle the compression and padding to the correct size (don't need padding in v3 w/lar). I am going to make an new VSA release soon so this would be a good time to make this change. Thoughts?
