 I am not sure, but the cmpi instructios in
 	sys/arch/macppc/stand/ofwboot/Locore.c
         sys/arch/macppc/stand/bootxx/bootxx.c
 may need to be
 	cmpi 0, 0, ..., ...
 instead of
 	cmpi 0, 1, ..., ...
 
 I know the "comp 0,1,..."  worked on my 601 and an old 601 manual I have
 says the 601 will ignore the L (sign extend 64bits) field.  But I just
 read in other places which say L=1 is an invalid instruction for 32
 implementations.
 
 I think the Locore.c patch is already checked in, but not the bootxx.c
 one.  I can resubmit patches for everything not yet checked in for the
 PR if it would be helpful.
 
 Thanks
