Just constants -- see my other post for info on 
"initial values for variables".

In practical terms, the .rodata can always be in ROM.  The other
can be modified at program run time.

gensh2 executables will NOT run in the simulator.  This BSP assumes
the presence of peripherals that are not in the simulator.

minimum is not really designed to run anyway -- it should only get to
the init task and do nothing else.

It accessed some HW not supported in the simulator.

The author has moved on to another job.  I have a private
