    Hi Guy,

    I finally got a chance to do this. The JR bug seems indeed to be fixed,
    but:

    a. I had to add the RETI# extension manually; this is checked into your
    tree on the "hpa1" branch but was never merged. What's perhaps more
    concerning is that interrupts seem to be screwy -- this could have
    something to do with RETI# not working right when I tried to put it back
    in. I haven't delved too deeply into this problem yet.

    b. I still need a tv80se (with clock enable) top level. Creating one in
    the obvious way (just hooking up the cen port on tv80_core) didn't work
    -- the CPU ran fine as long as the clock was already enabled, but it
    crashed as soon as the clock enable was stopped.
