Or it may be a little better to call CYGACC_CALL_IF_RESET(); from
<cyg/hal/hal_if.h> which should always use the right reset mechanism
if it exists, or entry point in the worst case.

Another way to automatically reboot is to do something like set a 
breakpoint on cyg_test_exit, and when it is hit go:

maintenance packet r
detach    (or quit)

That also uses the stuff from hal_if.h.
