in my ideal world, the panic room is SerialICE. I just had a talk with
someone over the weekend (name not mentioned to protect the innocent
-- me :-) and I think this ought to be workable.

a hlt() in case of die() just seems too final. How much more useful if
it dropped back to serialice and one could talk to coreboot and find
out, from the coreboot log, what just happened.
