Hi,

I tested some things this weekend. Strange things happen ;-)
The code does not work. Trying to debug with gdb, around the code I got 
an error, something like 'recovering from a double fault'.

After searching the STM32 forum of ST I found that some toolchains 
assemble the rbit instruction in a wrong way. Someone made a work-around :
	.word	0xFxAyFA9y	//RBIT Rx,Ry x, y = 0 to F
My Freepascal version is this :
     .word	0xFA90
     .word	0xF0A0
Then when I disassemble in gdb, I get rbit r0,r0
Disassembling with objdump gives a strange result.

I'm going to try this as soon as I can.

Regards,

Koenraad Lelong.
