Updated for LINUX and WINDOWS build.
This weekend I have wrote some tools for working with PS3 firmware files.
Basically there is support for firmware extraction and creation.
Yes, there is some tools for extraction already (thanks to [RO]man sources, it wasn't difficult to understand structure of PUP-file), but I have implemented it as I like and under GPL license.
Of course, for now firmware creation doesn't help a lot, because there is Sony signatures both for header and for all of the files included.
So, what you can do with it: you can extract firmware (this implies creation of XML-config file for firmware, which included ID's of all extracted files and can be modified and used for firmware creation), then you can edit it, and pack back. XML configuration file contains also hashes, which can be edited, but I doubt, that it'll be of any help now.
All firmwares, I've repacked without changes were diffed, and are identical (in except of 2.16 firmware, which were dumped from Gran Turismo, my tool stripped zeroes padding from end of file, and replicated it to original state).
Dependencies:
Linux
libxml++
Quick usage:
1. place firmware.pup in save directory with gpup;
2. run "./gpup x firmware.pup" - this will unpack firmware and creates firmware.pup.xml;
3. edit firmware.pup.xml file to suit your needs and possibly change extracted files;
4. run "./gpup c firmware.pup" - this will create new firmware.pup file based on firmware.pup.xml config and firmware files.

I've attached binary (compiled in "Ubuntu Hardy") and source. There isn't currently windows version, maybe I'll add it in the future, just haven't currently time for windows compilation (it would be great, if someone educated would make windows version from sources, I've provided).
Compiled windows version of Gpup. It'll be here in a soon time. Windows version outputs config file in plain text, basic layout is:
1 - version
0xf62 - unknown flag
<aaa> - header signature
5 - count of files records in this file
<111> - file id 1
<bbb> - signature 1
<222> - file id 2
<ccc> - signature 2
<333> - file id 3
<ddd> - signature 3
<444> - file id 4
<eee> - signature 4
<555> - file id 5
<fff> - signature 5
Per la traduzione, appena ho 2 minuti!
