Maybe 0x0 isn't the value I'm thinking of, but I've personally 
experienced a situation where a config-register mismatch SP/RP caused 
the SP to boot configless, then pass control over to the RP configful.  
As a result, the PFC initialized with the settings (or lack thereof) for 
the SP, but the RP initialized with the settings in the config.  In my 
case, it was a single-sup box, and therefore it scheduled a mandatory 
reboot for now+5m (repeatedly, I might add, until the problem was 
fixed).  In your case with dual sups, it may not be forcing a mandatory 
reboot for the standby supervisor, but you could end up in a strange 
state or one with a mandatory reboot should a switchover occur.

What have you found on the standby SP so far?
