I didn't fix the problems above. The change to traps.c only fixes
traps.c for 64bit builds and it's a totally different issue. Looking
at the warning/errors someone needs to fix some data types and use 
CKSEG0ADDR(). I don't have the hardware, so I could only provide
an untested patch, if no one else steps forward...
