Good suggestion - So I've built coreboot-v2 and I can now get to the 
"Jumping to coreboot" line.  Looking at older posts it appears that 
Arnaud had to play with some RAM settings to get past this issue, so 
I'll start there.

Tomorrow I'll have a look at the difference between the assembly code 
generated and see if there is anything obvious.
