I found a bug, explained by saying that the kernel load addresses for
arm32 people were not aligned on a l1 boundary, so that the pmap
section code was not tested. I shouldn't have been coding so late.

My trouble is that I rewrote rpc_machdep.c :-)

My version is about half the size, and it appears that the reason for
that is my ommission to undertake certain necessary things.

Currently my big problem is not understanding the kernel_ptpt
business. It is a sort of array of the addresses to pagetables (?) 
that sometimes is treated as a pagetable (?).

Then pmap_pte does not return the pte at all but the pagetable (or am
I barking up the wrong tree?)
