	I've seen this on two systems, both PowerPC CPUs with Microchannel bus 
(models 250 and C10).  Power CPUs with MCA and PowerPC with PCI bus 
work.  I'm wondering if it is a compile option forcing an invalid 
instruction.

	It looks like it affects afs_dynamic_auth and klog, after validating 
the password, possibly while setting up the token.
