I assume you're on a machine that treats pci interrupts differently
than ISA interrupts (nearly everything but an AS200 or a multia)?  If
so, then all's well.  But the message should probably either have 16
added to it so that it matches the output from vmstat -i, or it should
read 'int a PCI irq 0'...

You *might* be able to get a meaningful ra out of the SRM console.
Try something like:

>>>e -virtual ra
gpr:               1A (   R26) FFFFFC0000498560
