  Compiled and working - as far as it goes -. Will enable use with the current
  start.elf, and is (subject to any minor changes introduced) ready for use with the
  version due for release shortly which will provide the correct transparency operation,
  and a better aligned frame buffer

Version 0.02. Tagged as 'BCM2835-0_02'

Detail:
  Covers the basic functionality, but does require a customised start.elf
  to function. The vast majority is an entirely new implementation and is
  BSD licenced, but 4% (the Makefile and a handful of simple macros) are
  copied from pre-existing Castle-licenced code, so it lives under the
  "mixed" hierarchy. If other HALs are anything to go by, we'll end up
  having to add more Castle code (at least some C runtime functions) so it's
  probably juast as well.
