 Ok.. next hurdle- the ACPI checksum function

 That's a _good_ thing: returning zero means the checksum was valid. The 
checksum is a single byte value, which is why the return value is ANDed 
with 0xff.
 
This appears to really throw everything else (the remaining ACPI stuff)
off, as other ACPI properties aren't located/read/understood. This
confusion results in a page fault originating from
xen/drivers/acpi/tables.c#acpi_table_get_sdt ..
 
 
 It's not been thrown off -- the fault is probably due to a table not 
being properly dynamically mapped, or something like that. Look 
carefully where the pointer you are dereferencing originated from.
 Is this indicative of issues to come, or is this just part of 
supporting a
new platform?
  
 If the CPU has a local APIC and supports 4MB superpages then it 
oughtn't to be that hard to get working...
