Michael,

Sorry for the long delay in replying,  I was on vacation for 10 days, then 
when I returned, the OFED RC5 release was imminent, so I decided to wait 
to install it before persuing this further.  Of course, when I did, the 
problem mysteriously went away.   The ib_mthca module now initializes 
correctly on both EM64T machines.  I noticed some discussion between you 
and Roland about making the parameter "fw_cmd_doorbell=0" the default. Did 
this occur in RC5?

In case the problem comes back again with RC6, below is some information 
on the machine that had the problem.
