Just a bit of clarification - Nathan's patch to preserve external
interrupt enable fixed Timo's original problem, but during diagnosing
this optimizations were turned off. It took a little while for Timo and
I to realize this and attempt the kernel with optimizations on, which
fixed the MHCK problem that remained after Nathan's patch. We don't
know why turning optimizations off introduces an MHCK exception.
