I'm having a little problem creating a patch for the current CVS.

The cpukit/score/cpu/arm/cpu.c code puts the ARM in Supervisor mode
(0x13), while the Nintendo DS must be in System mode (0x1F). We tried
to run the DS in Supervisor mode, but some devices are not working. So
during the development, we changed the value to System mode directly
in the file cpukit/score/cpu/arm/cpu.c.

I'm looking for a smarter solution to this problem. I saw the GBA BSP
copied the entire ARM code just to change a few things, and I don't
like this method.

I think a good solution would be:

- to add a constant in bsp.h or anywhere else in the BSP, defining the
ARM running mode
OR
- marking the _CPU_Context_Initialize function as weak, so we can override it

Any other ideas?

Thank you, our patch we be ready very soon :-)
