Thanks very much! Can you confirm that there are no timecounter sources on either machine, except for the RTC?
If so, then the problem is definitely n mips- or pmax-specific code. (Quite possibly the changes to use asc/sd, perhaps in interrupt handling?)

i'm currently not well, but i'll look into this as and when I can.
