I don't think "in examine()" will work, because dcc/fast memory
access may well have to be disabled until after reset is "complete".

That's my understanding too. So some target that is running at
speeds sub MHz speeds or thereabouts post reset.

I don't think we'll be able to forsee this situation and we can always
accept a patch to address it.
