sure :-) IRQ 8 is FIFO full and was never used (and to be honest, i don't
know what that irq is used for). before Wed, 21 Nov 2001 17:49:32 +0100
it was General purpose local interrupt - this one was also never
used. see include/asm-mips/sgi/sgint23.h for more info.

i have no clue, why you're getting this interrupt. it works pretty well
for me...
