See page 216 LPC2138 User guide
"If P0.14 is sampled low and the watchdog overflow flag is set, the
external hardware request to start the ISP command handler is ignored."

Could this be part of you problem?

I just ran in to this the other day, was using watchdog to reset after
IAP, and then could not get to bootloader by pulling P0.14 low.

Also, test in flash only, not in ram. Do NOT load test code with
watchdog time-out too quick or it becomes hard to talk to the part
again. Example, write test code to watchdog_hit() for about 5-10 sec.
before trying to test a wathdog time-out. This gives you the 5-10
sec. after each crash to try to re-flash the part with code that
doesn't enable the watchdog. WATCHDOG_DEBUG does hit break point but
