establish addressabilty to memory contained in a data space.

Considering the need to manipulate access registers, and not seeing any way to 
reliably set an
access register from a C program (or reliably pair it with a GPR containing the 
pointer),  I told
him "no".   Am I overlooking anything that anybody is aware of?

Yes. You're overlooking Systems/C at http://www.dignus.com/dcc/
