Aha.
There's one thing I will try to test myself (if I am able to): disable
the halt instruction in the CPU idle loop and see if that fixes this. I
enabled that for dual CPU systems and since then it doesn't work here
anymore on that system of mine. I enabled that on Axel's directions
though and I would not have suspected this to be a problem.
Of course, there can be a lot of other things giving trouble for us,
but this should be testable at least.
