  I took a look at OpenBSD's ipi_save_fpstate, and it's very similar  
except that this instruction (above) is in a different place.  I tried  
moving it (diff applied) and the system now comes up to multiuser  
always.  I'm not sure I'd call it stable, it stills seems to hang up  
occasionally, but I'll forward this diff so folks more familiar with  
the lower-level sparc64 SMP stuff can take a look at it.

  Thanks...
