It seems to be.  The sc probe always succeeds, and sc apparently accesese
memory where it shouldn't in some cases.  Don't enable sc0 if you don't
have an sc.

This is caused by a bug in siocncheckc().  Hitting a key to pause the
panic doesn't work.  This will be fixed RSN.

>could log them...)  just wondering.. thanks for all the help..
