This is actually a bug in OpenBIOS. It is mapped at 0xffd00000 (below
4G) for compatibility with 32 bit code, but the code does not handle
this case where top of RAM overlaps OpenBIOS.

Can you still reproduce this problem with the latest version of QEMU / OpenBIOS?

[Expired for QEMU because there has been no activity for 60 days.]
