cyg_start is one of the entry points into the application code. So it
may be coming from the application. If not, eCos provides a cyg_start
in packages/infra/current/src/startup.cxx
You say that the CSPR is invalid? Does the branch to cyg_start jump to
a valid address? It could be that the address is invalid and causes an
exception? Seems unlikely, but i cannot think of anything else.
