I removed ppc from the kernel. Disabling sio{0,1} seems to have
fixed the problem. That's a PITA because it means I can't use IrDA.

My comment was intended to indicate that the C1E fix code was being
executed.

CPU: AMD Turion(tm) 64 X2 Mobile Technology TL-50 (1607.33-MHz K8-class CPU)
Origin = "AuthenticAMD" Id = 0x40f82 Stepping = 2

AMD Features2=0x1f<LAHF,CMP,SVM,ExtAPIC,CR8>
Cores per package: 2
After disabling sio, I don't need hw.apic.idle_cpu - which removes the
RTC interrupt anyway.
