A quick update - I think I'm getting even closer.

U-Boot had some primitive BIOS Interrupt Service Routines and a Real
Mode bootstrap that I had not correctly enabled during my development
work (very embarrassing). I think I have these going now. I put a
little bit of code which dumps some pretty basic info when a BIOS IRQ
is initiated. So far I have seen instances of IRQ15, IRQ16 and IRQ10
before the system resets - I doubt this can be random code execution.

Digging deeper...
