Get me the test program so I can test it and try to grok it. Then I'll
make a branch for you. I just want to make sure the files work as
advertised before adding them to the cvs repo.

:) In the interest of sanity (and in helping you move forward on your
:) roadmap) shall I also prepare a patch for adding 8515 UART support (it
:) is different from the mega163, of course)? That might be something you
:) could mainline, and, if I run into weird problems, it could provide a
:) clean, tested baseline for testing.

It's probably time to rethink the road map since it looks like atmel is
tending toward the mega devices and slowing killing off the at90s parts.
I'd say keep working on the 163.

:) This weekend I'll (hopefully) have time to get back to this and other
:) AVR hacking.

Keep on it. I doubt I'll have much time for simulavr this weekend as I've
been making progress on another related (yet to be announced) project that
I want to focus on. ;-)
