I have a bootloader that allows the RAM image to be sucked from the UART
to a specified location (0x02000000) and then allows the code to be
executed. I was under the impresseion a BSP should assume it's coming
from cold start and make sure it's world is setup as it would like it.

Should the BSP not re-initialise the registers as it would want them?
