It along with the other BSPs I will mention all use the old exception
processing model.  Long-term, I would like to see it superceded.

AFAIK The ppcn_60x hasn't been run on real HW in a long time. :)

The score603e BSP is similar but at least sometimes gets tested.  The
dmv177
is the original BSP that libchip was used on.
