Hi Nathan,

> This problem should be fixed now.

  Almost :) My 7,2 and 11,2 G5's now hit the panic:

7,2: 120 translations

11,2: 126 translations

  If you are concerned about BSS usage for holding the translations, it 
might be possible to bump up the loader's unit of allocation from 16 
pages to 64 when on a G5. See the history of that at

http://svn.freebsd.org/viewvc/base/head/sys/boot/ofw/libofw/ofw_copy.c?view=log

later,

Peter.
