This looks like a different bug than the one I am trying to fix.

There was a mistake in the patch I posted.  The correct version
is in my latest feedback to PR8314.  I think this is a critical 
patch for 3.2.1.  It's correctness (finally) is easy to verify.
It installed multilib versions of the crt* code and the m5200
did not use a bsr instruction.

There is an RTEMS coldfire user trying to put together a cut down
for the problem he describes as:

Does this look familiar by any chance?
