Hi Michael,
thanks. I hope it will not be a pain for integration.

Changes can be visible from my branch github web interface :
https://github.com/drasko/openocd

There is a lot of insertions, which is good - a newly contributed code
that enables new (so far non-existing and missing) features for MIPS
platform.
Particularly nasty are ASM parts implemented in opcode macros and
passed to CPU via EJTAG shared mem as a pure bytecode miniprograms.
These are difficult to debug, but once mechanism is understood it can
be done (one just have to be very careful).

I did my best to explain this mechanism before in my EJTAG doc (posted
to this list, but pending to be pretty-formated and commited) and
also to place appropriate comments in the code.

All in all, I am satisfied with these changes and I think that they
make MIPS platform way more versatile. In any case, it will represent
a good base for new additions and changes, and I'll try to maintain
this branch and contribute as I move along.

BR,
Drasko
