I've made a rather half-hearted attempt at 5500 support, but discovered
I know absolutely zip about vax console support.  I can get a kernel to
boot and panic with "Console not supported." really easily :-(

Does anyone have any pointers to doco on the "System Support Chip" that
handles console I/O?  There seems to be scattered references among the
ka650 code, but not much...
