It's just that you shouldn't have to apply this patch to the IP32 code and that shows that mips64 needs quite a cleanup there.

You can be almost certain that the CPU use that as an excuse in order to do really funny things. As the O2 is a non-cachecoherent machine this should also be correct for the R10000 / R12000. Ralf
