Yep. I disabled the code that installs the new reset-vector, and it was
worse than ever ;-) Usually I can do a software-reset without problems,
but pressing the reset-button just leaves me with a black screen. Without
MiNT's reset-handler I got the black screen with all resets.

However, I didn't examine the code that closely, it could be that there is
other stuff that must be removed or patched as well.
