Google knows about one problem with stwcx. on PPC405, known as "erratum 77".
Aka "CPU_210". See ftp://ftp.xilinx.com/pub/documentation/misc/ppc405f6v5_2_0.pdf Given that it is (officially) "Category 2" ("Major impact, workaround is impractical to implement, or a substantial risk of encountering the same or additional problems, including performance issues, exist after the workaround is implemented."), I (personally, so to speak) wouldn't even bother with it and simply say "you might have way too busted PPC405 model, please check and replace it if you want threading" or something like that in the docu instead. regards, alexander.
