There is an exception to this in the TurboLaser has to correct errors caused by DMA from the I/O boards since the PAL code hasn't got a clue as to what happened when something bad happens with this (and, no, neither NetBSD nor FreeBSD has this code in place). As a second note, the error cleanup && logging code is, in fact, very closely held Digital (now Compaq) Intellectual Property.
