My 2 cents:

This  is  not a heavy useage  area, since MMU virt/phys handling is very 
primitive.

As far as I can se Öyvinds ideas are sound, setting up the 
infrastructure in target.c and doing
a specific test implementation for 926ejs is a reasonable plan.

When this works well, as Övind says, there must be some rewrites of 
target scripts  and documentation to use the new and IHMO improved syntax.
Then we can implement target specifc low level handlers.

At the moment my BeagleBoard has developed a fever (methinks it is dead) 
and other work
keeps calling,  but I think for Cortex A8 and all Armv7A this should 
work fine.

Best regards,
Magnus

(note: I have now agreed to Övinds proposals two days in a row without 
any complaints, perhaps I am losing my edge)
