Sandpoint's not too bizarre, but it should be in evbppc.  As I recall,
evbppc came along after sandpoint showed up.  I had always meant to
move it over, but never found the time.  And I haven't had sandpoint

Yes.  Some platforms have minimal boot code, though, and will need some
initialization that would normally happen in the boot code.

Sounds like some excellent plans.  Wish I could participate in the
hackathon.
