I've send out some patches some time ago, search for them in list
archives. However, I was told that this CPU is quite broken, and that it
is more-or-less unacceptable to import the changes I send around. When
I'm a bit more experienced with this special MIPS CPU, I'll probably go
and implement it in the way Maciej told... For now, try the old patch,
or fetch a new CPU:-)
