Good luck ;-).

I don't think it's related to my board. I'm quite sure that it's like
that on all mpc5200a. Oliver has a board with such a processor, IIRC.
I will try to find another mpc5200a board.

Well, the mpc5200a obviously does not enter properly the sleep mode.
Nevertheless, the board still works fine after an "ifconfig up".

But if it shows up on all mpc5200a, it would be confusing for the users.
