I'd be interested too, yeah. Annoyingly, although my RPC is less than a year
old it still only has a revision K chip in it.

As a related question - is there a way of telling what crashes are caused by
this bug, and what might be being caused by others, without swapping the SA
for a different processor?

My RiscPC is buried under my desk with 5 padlocks holding it down, so
detcting this without dismantling the computer would be a bonus!

Have fun
