I think I really have to get some comparative measurements on code size

Not even a common architecture (given Jurgen's SAM9260 port isn't
public). And no common chip even then. I think that unless someone is
willing to port one or other to a common piece of hardware, then the
only recourse is the synthetic target.
I've now built both implementations and run all tests successfully on
synth for both. Now I "just" need to finish porting rwbenchmark.c to (R).
Do you see any opportunity to complete this review in the near future?

Our project, RFID Guardian, has unexpectedly be cut out of funding. The
project is now in the fridge until we find new funding, and that might
take an arbitrarily long time. I am winding up loose ends in the
software right now, and I expect I will be assigned as research
programmer to some other project within the Computer Systems Group of
the VU Amsterdam. I don't know for sure, but my expectation is that I
will not be able to do more than bug fixes for my NAND package.
Well, this kind-a breaks any promises I made regarding
improvements/performance hacks to the package, and although I feel bad
about that, there is some mitigation in the fact that more than a year
has passed since in complete silence.
