Well, you might want to take a look at real_mode_switch_call_vsm. I see 
the code telling it to use real mode address 0:0x1000 as the location 
for the stack.

http://tracker.coreboot.org/trac/coreboot/browser/trunk/coreboot-v2/src/cpu/amd/model_lx/vsmsetup.c#L182

Maybe that is why it is getting stomped :)

(link is to v2, but the code is the same. Why can't I browse v3 in trac 
or viewvc?)
