Thanks, I'll check that out. However a new complexity has arisen. It
turns out that in addition to not having access to the MMU, we do not
have access to cp0. I'm afraid that this would require even more
rewriting of the kernel. Although I started this to learn something,
there might be more involved in this than I am prepared for.
