The guy whose EB64+ I was helping to bootstrap was running into this
too.  He's out of town until the end of the holidays

I think we managed to trace it back to isa_alloc_resource() being
called out of scattach(), then returning 0 due to
rman_reserve_resource() returning 0.

I'm not clear why that happens.  We got as far as building subr_rman
with -DRMAN_DEBUG only to discover that it crashes on the initial
printf when called from the pci code.  At that point we ran out of
time..
