I'm seeing the same rtc error but my systems are not hanging. I can still get 
to them and they seem to handle a good load from time to time, 4 running proc.

Is this a stability or performance issue? 

If it is a stability issue  how do I test it?

Charles,

Are you willing to try an experimental patch?

Perhaps you could try the attached patch and post back if it happens to 
solve your problem.  There is most definitely a problem where qemu can 
get hung up indefinitely after an "interrupt storm".  I had not ever 
submitted it because there is no clean way to do this via the opaque 
information that is passed around.  It seems wrong to have to make the 
ioapic a global.  If this does fix the problem perhaps someone will 
decide to fix this up in a cleaner fashion via the opaque structures.

Jason.
