Ah, I forget to verify it with the SS-20 default cpu where it does
indeed work, but in that case OBP gets an access fault which leaves it
only partially initialized.

For me, either OBP under SS-5 with it's default cpu, or SS-20 with
SuperSparc 60 both show the failure.  The most obvious is SS-20 with
Ross RT625 where it misdetects the cpu as a 605e.

This is with a 32-bit x86 host (both Debian 5.0.7 and win32).
