Indeed.

If this change does not go in to the v2 branch then I will have to
check a slightly different version of the quicc ethernet driver in
there than the one I checked into the trunk. 

Gary's patch also introduces an incompatibility between old and new
RedBoots/eCoses, since management of the DPRAM is now shared. Without
it eCoses build with V2 cannot run on RedBoots built out of the trunk,
and vice versa. So I think it is essential.
