Dang. That's VERY WEIRD.

I don't think you need to test it, but I think (3) by itself will work.

I'm really puzzled.

Let's see if a little deductive work will help.

I think patch (1) has something to tell us I've not gotten. consinit()
calls two routines, cninit and the ddb init. Makoto, could you try
disabling one then the other of them? I bet what this change does is have
us not call the OF code, when calling the OF code w/o flushing the cache
would have problems. I bet why everything works is that there's another
call to consinit() later in main, which works because it's after the cache
stuff is setup. :-)

Could you also try the attached diff in one of the cases that works (say
with patch (3) but not patch (2))? It will show us what's in the cache
info on startup.

Oh, I think I found the problem with patch (2). I'll send out a 2' in a
seperate message.

Take care,

Bill
