I'm all for less invasive/disruptive option and have the HW available.
Dann pointed "jsw" at me and I'll set jsw up with full remote
access to the HW. jsw said he would setup a buildd on the HW
that I manage. If we can reproduce the problem great. If not,
even better and it will be just a matter of getting the same
kernel (or equivalent) onto paer or other official hppa buildd machine.
