This can be reduced to:

 -o '/iobus/pal@0xf0001000/reg 0xf0001000 32'

I don't know, but it shouldn't really matter. In GDB you can make a
macro instead of typing in the runes by hand (as suggested in the
Getting Started Guide). For the stand-alone simulator you can create a
shell alias or a shell script with the necessary runes.

There's sourceware.cygnus.com/psim, but I suspect it's the same
documentation as distributed with the sources.
