Hi,

There are a couple of things that are broken on mips32 right now and
I'm stretched pretty thin for time.

I'd really appreciate it if someone could help by figuring out what's up.

* If I use scp to copy something into a USB rootfs on my Carambola2,
the whole system hangs. I can use ddb to break into things, but
nothing obvious has shown up. The only two locks are a buflock and a
vfslock - but I didn't get any LORs from Witness.

* ddb "continue" and "step" no longer works. I don't know when it
stopped working; I'd really appreciate some help figuring that out.

I'm going to keep poking at some of the default tuning bits as well as
performance/stability bits on ethernet and wifi. But having a working
multi-user board and a working debugger would be really, really
helpful.

THanks!
