 > "revision string is too long" means that, when the kernel asked OFW for
 the "model" property in the root node, it got back more than 10 bytes (at
 least according to my reading of the latest revision of olpc.c; I didn't
 check the history to see if this code has changed recently).

 Exactly; we *must* be getting back garbage from OFW to make it longer than
 10 bytes (hence the reason I wanted to see what /ofw/model contained).

 Now, if it was just that, I would assume the call_firmware pointer was
 just screwed up.  However,  given that EC communication is screwed up as
 well (and that doesn't use call_firmware, that pokes  directly at
 registers), I'm at a loss as to what's going on.
