Orientation is correct. I suppose I might have fried it before. Funny
thing is that I measured proper 3.3v at the jtag header yesterday but
didn't have my programmer handy to flash it. Today I tried to program
the CPLD and it smoked. I must have just buggered something up good.
Or, like you said, dud part. Dunno.

I need to order more parts, so I'll try again later. No idea of the
vreg is still good or not either. It will delay my work but oh well. I
figure someone else will report success with the new board design
before I get around to it, anyway. :-/
