The SET ADDRESS SPACE CONTROL FAST instruction is not privileged, it can be

to crash (see https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=990417#26 ).

While we're at it, also check if DAT is not enabled. In that case the
instruction is supposed to generate a special operation exception.

I'll give you

for fixing the incorrect IF_PRIV check, which by itself should be enough to fix the Java issue.
