It doesn't work for me. It even can't initialize a device, I think it's
because the JTAG ID has changed. But this is not the only change - JTAG
initialization sequence is unclear, we've used logical analyzer to sniff
how IAR works. Seems that memory writing sequences are changed too.

Yeah, but sometimes a debugger is quite useful. Anyway, I not plan to
implement it right now, cause I'm totally out of schedule due to
problems with 5418 programming.
