I was asked upon a typo in my posting:

  Embarassing, should have been M68070.

There does exist M68aa7##AA:s (a&A are letters, #:s are: 01, 03, 05, 11,..)
which are 8-bit microcontrollers with EPROM.
They are of different stock than 68000 and its descendants.

  Motorola itself has major 68K processor numbers as:

	68000 (+68008)
	68010
	68020
	68030
	68040
	68060  (when it comes)

The 68070 will never come from Motorola, and as far as I have understood
local marketroids, neither will 68050.  Motorola's naming for embedded
controllers with 68K core are  68300-series, of those  68302 uses 68000
core (and was designed in Tel Aviv), while all the rest use so called
CPU32 -- a modified 68020 instruction set.

Asking salesmen will explain what MC68HC000 is, and how it differs from
MC68EC000, and why there isn't FPU in MC68EC040...

If anybody is to implement proper support for "CPU32", I would like to
give a hand -- no money to spend on it, just some of my time.. :-(
