I'm sorry Henry, but you're dead wrong.  There is no bug list for the
68020 -- only a list of CORRIGENDA.  Of course, I always thought that
corrigenda included corrections.  These "corrigenda" seem to consist 
only of errors, but then, the print is so fine I might be missing an
occasional correction.

There's even a helpful program included.  My favorite part is

              BEQ  NORECOVER

                   .

NORECOVER:    WE CANNOT RECOVER FROM THIS FAULT

I'm a little weak on 68k assembler syntax, and I can't seem to find those
instructions in my 68020 handbook.  Perhaps someone can post an explanation.

                         :-)   :-)   :-)

No flames, please.  After all the snide remarks from Austin about our bug
lists back when we were where they are now, it's nice to be out of the woods
and in a position to laugh at them for a while.
