One thought that occurs to me, and I have no idea whether it is an issue 
with this processor, is that some watchdogs must be cleared before they are 
enabled or you run the risk of them firing as soon as you enable 
them.  Whether or not they do depends on when you start them and how the 
registers initialize etc...
