May just leave this for next release, sorry.

I still didn't like the change to logging -- that's not intended to
print some machine implementation detail, but the address of the
instruction that caused the syscall/hcall. That could be changed
easily enough.

But I am also now in two minds about the change to nip too.
Synchronous interrupt is today handled here with nip at the address
of the instruction that caused it. That's *also* a nice invaraint to
have.

Other patches seem okay.

Thanks,
