I checked around and found a few more CRC calculations. In summary

Belated reply from me (what's new!), but just a few comments:
First of all, we aren't the master for jffs2. If there's a problem with
the crc32 calc for jffs2 we should tell <dwmw2@redhat.com>. But then I'm
not convinced a mismatch with zlib counts as a problem. If you agree, then
this is a nop :).
I tried RedBoot, FIS & ZLIB functions, and JFFS2 (I ran the eCos test
program) all with no problems. Andrew has already committed this change
and I think it's OK.
Oh sure, it's *self* consistent, but the original problem (I believe)
Roland reported was inconsistency in comparison with what zlib generates.
