No, seeing the coprocessor conditional branch case we want this patch 
even if we decide to handle data faults differently.

That is, unless Andreas can come up with a reason why calculated branch 
target adresses cannot be used with these coprocessor branch 
instructions?

Moreover, can Andreas or Geert come up with a better way to fix the actual 
bus error bug (nevermind the theoretical address error bug) than this same 
patch (which just happens to work for both)?
