Thanks Matthias and everyone who replied via private e-mail.  I've now 
learned that the XC in XC68040HRC25M is for unqualified chips (MC for 
fully qualified) and that EC or LC chips would say 68[EC | LC]040blahblah 
but I am now curious what the HRC means.  What does the RC stand for?
I've heard from people who's chips simply read 68040RCblahblah; what is 
the H for?  I'm guessing that it's maybe a different process.  Anyone?

Oh well,  it's not that important.  I guess I should just install it and 
be done with it.  Now where did I put that hacksaw...
