So anyway, the other day, one of the processors in our 8800 dies, and we
bring the machine up on the other processor.  No problem, right?  Either
processor can act as primary processor.  Except if you are running code
that happens to check your SID to make sure you aren't pirating.  Each
processor has its own SID - and all the code was calling us pirates....
