Hello François,

thanks for your report!
I have added your board to our list of supported hardware and will
commit that later together with other small changes.
One needs to change the supported flag in print.c as well in such cases
BTW.

The SCIP bit thingy is a bit strange... it is only needed for SPI which
is unused on that board, but the bit is controlled by hardware alone
and should reset to 0 when the controller is ready... no idea why it is
not in this case but I'll ignore that for now.
