Don't know.  But I do know of problems with MIPS machines because the ECOFF
headers are proprietary, so certain nice things can't be done.  Perhaps this
is a similar thing?  (I.e., the u-code [in its current incarnation] is
proprietary, and the only way to find out what it is is to read some
documentation which came with a restricting license?  Beats me.  Seems
pretty silly, though, I think.)
