I was always intrigued by that FX2 GPIF stuff -- that's what you're
talking about?  I think they did that to speed up IDE-to-FIFO data
transfers, so the CPU wouldn't be involved.  On the other hand, any
8051 is a turn-off for me.  :(

That's why I mentioned Cortex-M3.  There are a lot of those around;
and GCC handles them quite nicely.  So does OpenOCD, for that matter!
