>Description:
The modified POWERMAC_G5 kernel I recently managed to boot on a Power
Mac G5 as described in PR 59529 no longer boots since this commit:
2025.07.20.09.41.19 martin src/sys/arch/macppc/conf/GENERIC 1.383
Enable PAX_ASLR
The last output from OFW is:
loading .data, done..
clearing .bss, done..
Invalid memory access at $SRR0: 00000000.00e00384 $SRR1: 10000000.00003030

This is booting from a CD containing ofwboot.xcf and the kernel, both
built from the same -current sources. Since the error happens so
early, I suspect this is a problem with ofwboot.xcf rather than the
kernel.
Reverting the commit makes the boot work again.
