That would make sense if the active/passive relationship were determined
when the hardware initialized rather than at IPL time.  Unfortunately
we try to keep one CEC (CPC now, I think) up whenever we do a POR so we
would occassionally run into this.   All we have to do to avoid it is
make sure our PORs are timed to happen simultaneously and finish within
milliseconds of each other.
