The current implementation of load/init-program has some fairly big hacks in order to work around the fact that we don't have per-architecture CPU contexts. An example of this is chained bootloaders used for SPARC64 which use Forth to alter the saved CPU context so that control is returned to a different address by directly executing init-program before return.
With all architectures now able to save/restore CPU contexts, these hacks can now be removed and init-program changed to be a single per-architecture implementation along with some associated tidy-ups.
I've given this a fairly thorough testing across all my OpenBIOS test images and as far as I can tell doesn't cause any regressions.
Requires the previously posted SPARC32 and SPARC64 context patches to be applied first.
