I found mention of this in mailing list archives but no solutions worked for
me. This also seems to happen in the baseline version, and I can't find a
set of parameters that prevent this.

Hi George

Is your problem solved now?
I met the same problem, and I find that it is because the L2 cache
controllers are always calling zz_recycleL1RequestQueue action which causes
the L2 cache always handling the L1 request while the data response from the
directory for 0x4000 cannot be processed. If you modify the action to
z_stall this problem can be solved. 
But I met more problems after getting over this step, the OS still cannot
come up and hang at 

srm_env: version 0.0.6 loaded successfully

when I use 16 core configuration.
