Dan,

hehe..  I went the harder way, and worked around the dcbz instructions
to allow me to disable data cache all together.

Btw, we also fixed our Cache Coherency problem on Friday.  It happened
to be a bug in our system controller chip.  They found it and gave us
a work-around.

Thanks,

Paul W.
