Hrm... I invite you to read the gazillion errata for this chip rev :(
You should also contact the AmigaOS folks, they might have configured
something in the northbridge in a way that won't work when the M bit is
set but there might be a workaround. I suppose their northbridge spec is
kept behind closed door though, as it is common nowadays :(
