Some reference to confirm it?

I found this note, in another thread, which perhaps implies the source was not at that time lost, but perhaps not very useful:

Hmm... maybe you start to understand the problem/difficulty in fixing things... :-)

Completely non-documented (at least in anything but sparse chinese) source, non-English tools, extensive regions of assembly using non-standard assembly heavily dependent on non-documented features and registers requiring a close working relationship with the exact chip manufacturer (who doesn't have anyone who understands the chip anymore), no way to flash or change the firmware once flashed, etc

If you can imagine it, chances are it is part of the issue.
