  As far as I remember, there are 2 specific 030 cache instructions, and the
unit programming it's a bit different. Also it's possible that you can find
a 030 without a MMU (or FPU?), altough don't think so with black hardware. I
think that in locore.s it's the only place where changes must be commited.
