Yes, you are very close ) But besides CDDA, there are a number of changes that needed to be made in order to return at least part of the WinCE and other games to work, since compatibility was worse in the first builds of 0.8. Also changes for CDDA touch common data flow too, IRQ handling and etc.
In turn, WinCE games brought with them a lot of common changes in syscalls, data flow (again), and so on.
Newest compilers change code behavior, speed up it, optimizing, some things can be broken after upgrade.

So the syscall boot it's not perfect yet ?
It looks cdda with wince games has only one mode, maybe it will be better to separate the wince loader from others ?
And maybe remove the low level boot in 0.8.x loaders series in order to win some spaces in the 32Ko max for loaders ?
Just the thinking of the noob than me
