This is a good example of what I was talking about with regards to tool
chains.  I can't imagine that there's a problem per se with JFFS2 and a given
tool chain, but rather with the public eCos JFFS2 code in general.

The code bases aren't all that different.  Most of the stuff in the eCosPro
tree is support for platforms that aren't in the public trees yet.

I will gladly make the changes available.  I just thought we might test it a
bit more.

Well, I can offer up a patch set, but can't guarantee it'll go in.  It'll
probably be included in the 3.0 release though, so I'm not too worried about
it for the time being.

I can guarantee that if anyone asks questions, I'll do my best to answer
them.
