OK, so you're not getting an interrupt regardless of low-power state.

Check whether the interrupt is getting masked during standby preparation.

Does the interrupt handler run when you're not trying to enter standby?

What is "it"?  Do you mean that powersave-nap doesn't break things, or
that standby works when you specify that?

You mean connecting a JTAG but not doing anything with it made
wake-from-standby work?

There was a bug like that on early revisions of the mpc8313erdb board --
though in that case if you had a bad board the system would hang
whenever you access any PMC register.  I'm not sure what the mechanism
of failure was; IIRC the fix was adding a resistor.
