First, we couldn't get this issue to happen w/ anything but the custom
app.  It would generate a lot of I-TLB Error exceptions, with bit 1 of
SRR1 set, and these went fine, the I-TLB got updated, and execution
continued.  But then at some point, and we aren't sure why exactly, an
0x1100 is generated, and we crash.  We don't know what went and caused
an 0x1100 to be generated instead of an 0x1300 (my wild-ass-guess is the
code jumped very very far ahead).
