Yep, that dies with a backtrace but not taking input to
the db> prompt.

The call stack looks to have the same sequence.

Different srr0 and lr values were listed when I tried
that:

srr0=3D0x8004'4000'0000'0000 (0xc004'4000'0000'0000)
. . .
lr  =3D0x8004'4000'0000'0000 (0xc004'4000'0000'0000)

Back when I was using the FireWire based debugging I
discovered that it continued to report material after
the monitor updates stopped. I learned to not use
the last message on screen to guess where it was
having a problem, other than "sometime after the
last message shown".
