I guess I am just bored of the month long harangue of Philips.  This 
isn't a discussion, it is a prolonged attack without one shred of 
proof that Philips is either incorrect or hiding something.

I just read through the section in the LPC2292 datasheet (3d paragraph 
of section 6.2) - it seems pretty clear to me.

JTAG doesn't talk to the hardware for programming, it uses IAP which 
is implemented in the boot code.  This from Errata IPA1, 14 NOV 2005.  
One can suppose that the boot code knows what to do about JTAG access 
to flash given that the boot code does that actual programming as well 
as implementing CRP.  If Philips says JTAG is disabled if CRP is 
enabled, where is the proof that they are wrong?

Go to the source, get the answers in writing, share the results, if 
they aren't covered by an NDA.  Again, there are formal channels for 
this.
