Re: Problem with de4x5 on Alpha?

I reverted de4x5.[ch] and Space.c to their -test5 versions, and I get
the same effect.  If I disable the starting of networking, and boot, I
can then see this when I attempt to start it:

root@buddha:~# /etc/init.d/networking start
Setting up IP spoofing protection: rp_filter.
Configuring network interfaces... done.
root@buddha:~# eth1: media is 100Mb/s.

After that, it's locked up.  Sometimes it prints the media notice before
it hangs, and sometimes it doesn't.  I don't believe I've ever seen it
print that when I booted with nosmp (always hangs before it gets that
far.)  Also, when SMP is enabled, sometimes when I do the SysRq-t I see
this right before the trace starts:

smp_call_function_on_cpu: initial timeout -- trying long wait

And then down mixed in with the trace, I get a notice from a BUG_ON() at
line 878 of arch/alpha/kernel/smp.c  Decoded, it looks like this:

This is what lspci shows.  The 21040 is built into the I/O board, but is
only 10mbit so I don't use it.  The 4 21142/43 entries are the ports on
a 4-port DE500-BA card.  I'm using the first port on that card for my
connection.  I've tried swapping around and using the 21040, or a
different port on the other card, but it doesn't seem to change
anything.

If there's any specific information that I'm not presenting that would
be useful, please just let me know what things to gather up.
