I have the IEEE 1364 in hardcopy, but I never thought the VCD format
as such much of a major trouble so I have left it idle while figuring
out how to best dump the waveforms out in the Savant core.

If you are seeing some time at hand, maybe we should do the common
effort and actually do a propper core support in the Savant kernel?
When we have that, then getting the VCD dump in there is childs-play,
we do that as an example on how to interface to the dump-core.

It would be much more fun to hack in the GTKWave as the front directly
to the dump-core!

Cheers,
Magnus
