I recently had some experience of CS8900A with Hitachi SH3 processor. I
was only involved with the hardware bit, but I think the problem you are
having might not have anything to do with avr-gcc. Make sure the reset
is done properly and remember the Reset line of the chip is active high.
Then the next thing you might try is the timing for Write and Read.
There is a Technical Reference Manual and FAQ at Cirrus Logic web site
that could be helpful.
