I don't think it has problems with either mode. I _think_ I've booted a
HWDIRECT kernel correctly with the jumper set and unset on my LC475 (I
don't normally use a HWDIRECT kernal since with only serial console support
there doesn't seem a lot of point). Interestingly, when booting, it does
report a different value for the 'cpu: delay factor' with the jumper set
and unset. I've no idea why.
