Geert, my crosstool don't produce warning below. I guess this has to do something with compiler version. - Geert noticed following warning during compilation.

If we can't find a suitable request Âto dispatch, this function should return NULL instead of a possibly garbage Âpointer.
Thanks, gcc version 4.1.2 20061115 now no longer gives a warning.
- Cross compile tested only. Don't have hardware to test it.
Floppy hardware in bad state here :-(
