No, I don't have that one, and yet the system boots fine (although PCI
doesn't get much use on this box). I guess I'm lucky...

Now you've got me worried. Can you point me to that ATF patch? I'm 
quite
curious as to how you recover from an SError on a v8.0 CPU given that 
it
has no syndrome information and may as well signal "CPU on fire!"...
