Using a recent gcc (4.5x or 4.6.x) should address the ldmia/stmia 
problem, if I remember that correctly from the gcc lists.

In addition there was another bug in M3 that requires a command line 
switch passed to gcc to get around. I added that switch in the m3n 
branch as it was a problem that was addressed in the STM app-notes too.

Best regards
