Well, I suppose one possibilty is that this GSR has some ancient CSC
cards, and you need to deal with exchanging them for standard goods.

The other possibility would be that the router is hosed to the degree
that it's failing to read the CSC or other info across the MBUS and
it's just assuming that all ones or some other condition means that
it's not a good-guy kind of CSC.

I'd suggest chatting with Cisco armed with serial number of the cards
in question, the other option seems to be to systematically swap cards
between apparently good and apparently bad router and either get the
firmware cleanly upgraded or pin down the apparent problem child.
