Crap, not again.....This was broken/fixed/broken/fixed during 2.3
and I thought it was finally correct.  It's really obvious on the
MPC8xx processors and I haven't seen it for a while.  I'll look
into it, as it used to be hidden away in macros or other generic
functions.  I thought the 6xx/7xx should have worked (unless we
have made some BAT mapping change recently.....)


Thanks.
