A bug in interrupt handling will either crash QEMU or result in some devices which are unusable (ethernet, ...). I just sent another patch which fixes this issue. Please consider applying one of my patches (or any other solution: it's also possible to revert Avi's patch) to the final QEMU 1.0. I know that you tried to make 1.0-rc4 =3D=3D 1.0, but I think that a bug fix which is limited to mips_malta.c won't harm and is better than releasing 1.0 with an unusable MIPS system emulation.
