Actually both are needed as I discovered that the virtual memory 
allocator starts at the top of the Forth machine RAM and works down, so 
at some point it would end up clobbering some Forth internals :/

Can you try the revised patchset I'm about to post on top of SVN trunk and
http://www.openfirmware.info/pipermail/openbios/2013-April/007572.html 
and confirm that your kadb still loads? This works for me on my current 
SPARC32 test suite of Linux, Solaris 8 and NetBSD.


Many thanks,

Mark.
