[coreboot] Strange failure - help?

I have two coreboot trees. As far as I can tell they're identical.
One produces working ROM images, and the other reboots when it jumps
to the payload.
These are the only differences from the .map files:
Broken:
0000b03d A _binary_coreboot_ram_rom_size
0010b03d A _eiseg
fffeb03d A _x
fffeb03d D _binary_coreboot_ram_rom_end
fffeb03d D _eliseg
fffeb03d D _eram
Works:
0000b222 A _binary_coreboot_ram_rom_size
0010b222 A _eiseg
fffeb222 A _x
fffeb222 D _binary_coreboot_ram_rom_end
fffeb222 D _eliseg
fffeb222 D _eram
The broken one has a path of:
/home/myles/try/buildrom-devel/work/coreboot/svn/
The working one's path is:
/home/myles/buildrom-devel/work/coreboot/svn/
They were both working until yesterday. I've tried everything I can
think of. I've removed the non-functional one's build directory
completely. The payloads are bit-for-bit identical.
The only difference in the boot log before the reboot is this line:
Works:
Wrote coreboot table at: 00000500 - 00000788 checksum 5385
Broken:
Wrote coreboot table at: 00000500 - 0000076c checksum 4fd2
diffing the hexdump of the ROM files shows that the payload is identical.
Any ideas?
It is true that I have a working tree, but if I didn't I'd be hosed so
I'd like to know the real cause.
Thanks,
Myles
