Wow, that's pretty interesting. I spent some time with objdump (dasm  
actually) studying the code but got bored after a while. After AMD  
announced the release of the GPU specs I decided it would be more  
practical to get ATI hardware and let the proprietary nvidia blob  
rot. The knowledge gained from the reverse engineering can be useful  
for the  Nouveau guys (http://nouveau.freedesktop.org/wiki/) anyway.
