Does somebody know the destiny of this item?

Hello.
	One month ago Till Straumann wrote about the bug in 
'new_exception_processing' code. Where there some actions about this since 
that time or the problem exists in MPC860 BSPs?
	Thanks ahead.

_ISR_Nest_level

PPC BSPs other than mpc8260ads!!!

PR288 never made it to other PPC BSPs.

watch out

As a quick workaround, you can delete the line

_ISR_Flash()

in the file cpukit/score/src/watchdoginsert.c
(your IRQ latency will go up)

(old_exception_processing BSPs are not flawed)
