          ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

	This tells me that there was some memory/cache corruption that
caused an incorrect sequence of bytes to be sent to the
processor for execution.

	This could be either hardware or software.  I'd recommend the
following:

	1) enable 'service single-slot-reload'
(this will allow the system to handle OIR and other events more gracefully
without being too disruptive to the rest of the bus)

	2) reseat the card to insure that it's not taking errors due to
poor connection to the backplane.
