The default feature matching do you mean feat_enable()?
I just tested using that again, within feat_enable() I can print and
see that the [h]fscr gets the bits set for enabling prefixed
instructions. However once I get to the shell and start xmon, the fscr
bit for prefixed instructions can be seen to be unset. What we are
doing in feat_enable_prefix() avoids that problem. So it seems maybe
something is not quite right with the init_thread.fscr. I will look
into further.

This was just going to be that they exist.

Good point.

No problem.
