If its off by 150, not by 5.  But where is the time base and 
decrementer enabled?  The code to do that is in mpc6xx/mmu/mmuAsm.S in 
the call to "L1_caches_enables", but the call to that is commented out 
in mvme5500/startup/bspstart.c.

I tried just setting the bit in bspstart.c at that point but it didn't 
help.
