 Replying to [comment:11 stevenh]:
 > Investigations will continue tomorrow as to what exactly might be the
 cause; but create_ring_buffer_etc() on line 134 of
 kernel/utils/ring_buffer.cpp seems to be the lock. I am running on 256mb
 of RAM? Could I have run out?

 No, the OpenFirmware code in the boot loader is just ignorant of the debug
 syslog feature and doesn't unset kernel_args::keep_debug_output_buffer
 while not allocating a debug_output either. I added an extra check in
 r36748. That should fix the issue (the feature won't work, of course).
