After 3 days of hacking, I found it. The new Core99 interrupt tree code doesn't
take into account that on CHRP boxes with both ISA and OpenPIC, the interrupt
numbers have to be fixed up. Below is the patch that made it work for me.

Before I check it in into bitkeeper: should I replace the test

    _machine == _MACH_chrp

by

    !strncmp(model, "IBM,LongTrail", 13)

or are there other CHRP models bitten by this as well?
