OK, as requested here is the output:

c01c1850 t dc_intr
c022f41c t fdc_intr

FYI, the machine in general is staying up a bit longer, so maybe you
nailed one bug and there are just a few more that also need to be 
caught. :)

Anyway thinks for trying to help me track this one down as it's very
much appreicated, and if you need any other info just let me know...
